Prerequisites

Before you can integrate the Okito SDK, there are a few things you’ll need to have set up in your development environment. This guide will walk you through the necessary tools and packages to ensure a smooth start.

1. Node.js Environment

The Okito SDK is a JavaScript/TypeScript package and requires a Node.js environment to run.

Node.js: We recommend using the latest Long-Term Support (LTS) version. You can download it from the official Node.js website .
Package Manager: You will also need a package manager. This guide will use pnpm, but npm or yarn work just as well.

You can check if you have Node.js and npm installed by running:


node -v
npm -v

2. Solana Wallet Adapter

To sign transactions on the front end, your application must be able to connect to a user’s Solana wallet (like Phantom, Solflare, etc.). The Okito SDK requires a wallet object that conforms to its SignerWallet interface.

The easiest way to achieve this is by using the official Solana Wallet Adapter libraries.

Installation

Install the necessary wallet-adapter packages for React:

terminal


pnpm add @solana/wallet-adapter-react @solana/wallet-adapter-react-ui 
pnpm add @solana/wallet-adapter-base @solana/web3.js

Once these packages are installed, you will need to wrap your application in the required providers. Please refer to the official Solana Wallet Adapter documentation for instructions on setting up the providers in your application.

Next Steps

Once you have met these prerequisites, you are ready to install and initialize the SDK.
