Wagmi RainbowKit Wallet

Wagmi RainbowKit Wallet is a Next.js boilerplate that demonstrates how to add crypto wallet connection to a React app using wagmi hooks and RainbowKit. The project is bootstrapped with create-next-app, so it ships with the standard Next.js file structure including a pages directory and API routes.

What is Wagmi RainbowKit Wallet?

Wagmi RainbowKit Wallet is a starter project that pairs the Next.js React framework with the wagmi collection of Ethereum React hooks and the RainbowKit wallet connection UI. It takes a developer's local Node.js environment and produces a running web app on http://localhost:3000 with a connect-wallet flow. The repository does not name a specific author, but the template includes the default create-next-app pages and API route examples, plus the wallet integration code and Tailwind CSS / daisyUI styling.

Key Features

• Next.js framework — The app runs on Next.js with a pages directory; the development server starts with npm run dev.
• wagmi hooks — Provides React hooks for Ethereum, including account connection and chain data, used in the demo.
• RainbowKit — A ready-made wallet connection modal that supports MetaMask, WalletConnect, and other major wallets.
• Tailwind CSS — Utility-first CSS framework for styling the interface.
• daisyUI — A Tailwind component library that supplies prebuilt UI elements for the demo.
• API routes — Files in pages/api are treated as API endpoints, mapped to /api/*.
• Vercel deployment — The README points to the Vercel Platform for the easiest deployment path, and includes a link to Next.js deployment docs.

Who is it for?

• Web3 developers — Use this template as a starting point for any dApp that requires a connect-wallet button and Ethereum account data.
• Next.js developers — Learn to integrate wagmi and RainbowKit into an existing Next.js project by studying the demo code.
• Frontend designers — Prototype wallet interactions quickly with Tailwind and daisyUI already configured.

What can you do with it?

• Build a dApp front end: Add a wallet connection flow that lets users connect their wallets and display their account address.
• Learn wallet integration: Read the wagmi hook usage and RainbowKit configuration to understand how to connect wallets in React.
• Deploy a demo: Push the project to Vercel in a few clicks and share a URL that shows a working wallet connection.

How does it work?

Run npm run dev (or yarn dev) to start the development server, then open http://localhost:3000 to see the app. The main page lives in pages/index.js and auto-updates as you edit the file; the API route is at pages/api/hello.js and responds on http://localhost:3000/api/hello.
