Imagine you are trying to build a project that helps lovers find each other on the block chain and in the web3 ecosystem, this project will include gathering data from all over the web3 internet, debugging, testing for usability and market trends. That is already time consuming and a lot of work.
And then
you hit a roadblock - weak user experience in cross chain transactions for unlocking premium features, or users transacting with each other to create a special pod like in the reality show Love is Blind and so much more………
That is where Anyalt finance comes in
This part of the project can be taken care of by simply implementing the Anyalt widget so you can go back to focusing on gathering data and other parts of this dating app.
In this article,
we will be covering a few areas of discussion.
- Introduction to Anyalt
- The Anyalt Widget
- Features and integration of the Anyalt widget
Introduction to Anyalt Finance
Have you ever thought of how developers get to optimise apps to integrate well with other apps or software? Think of how stressful it is to pay for cable TV with third party apps ( paystack).
That’s because the developers of your cable TV app integrated paystack special key called “api” to allow transactions from your bank to their app through the payment portal.
That’s kind of like what Anyalt is doing, but much more simple in the web3 space.
Anyalt simplifies the user experience when swapping tokens and enables seamless transactions across chains.
It is a developer tool created to streamline the process of cross chain transactions.
Anyalt aims to remove the friction of token silos ( tokens would otherwise be stuck in their blockchain ).
The Anyalt Widget
Anyalt Widget is a plug and play integration option designed for developers who need a simple ready made user interface to ease the implementation process.
Who likes extra steps? Right?
Let's break that down a bit more. Plug and play integration means the user interface is already pre designed for you all you have to do is almost literally “drag” and ”drop” the Anyalt widget to integrate it.
You can worry less about the functionalities it needs and focus more on other aspects of your project. Like creating that pod
Features of Anyalt widget
If you have performed a transaction on the block chain before, probably sold usd on Bybit or Bitget then you know how crucial it is that when sending tokens from your wallet address to the recipient wallet address, they must be on the same chain.
You can only send usd trc 20 to another wallet usd trc 20 wallet address.
If you need BNB but you have ETH coins on Arbitrum, these two are like banks that have beef. You would need to sell BNB for usd then buy ETH, that is a lot of steps.
One of the interesting things about Anyalt widget is that users can easily convert tokens from a source chain in this case BNB to destination chain; ETH in the sense that “banks now get to talk to each other”
It allows for token swap functionality across different blockchain networks.
When creating brand new projects on the block chain, you’d often need to figure out all possible case scenarios for a transaction execution, chain switching as well as token selections.
Because Anyalt widget gives you a predesigned user interface component, your project can quickly and simply integrate the capabilities without deep diving into underlying complexities mentioned above.
This is possible due to
Anyalt's simple integration ability.
As established, Anyalt widget comes pre-built with token selection abilities, chain switching and fully functional user interface to take care of developing the entire UI from the ground up.
This way, a project integrates the widget without coding complexities and also gets customizable theme that has adjustable layouts. This layout can be tweaked to align to the project guidelines.
Another great feature of the Anyalt Widget is the Last-mile transaction Execution. This means that after token selection and swap, the Anyalt widget will ensure the completion of the user’s desired transaction to their specific project token in a seamless flow. Easy peasy.
Integration of the Anyalt Widget
While Anyalt widget requires a special API key for authentication and to connect the project to Anyalt backend services, here’s a quick run down of how to integrate this tool kit.
If this part gets too technical for you, feel free to skip and read the doc for more information.
Installing the Anyalt package
- Run npm to download the package and dependencies, just copy and paste the code below. Make sure you have react installed and react-dom in version 18 or 19
npm install @anyalt/widget @tanstack/react-query
or
yarn add @anyalt/widget @tanstack/react-query
or
pnpm add @anyalt/widget @tanstack/react-query`
- Import the css and jquery files for styling and responsiveness
import '@fontsource/rethink-sans/400.css';
import '@fontsource/rethink-sans/500.css';
import '@fontsource/rethink-sans/600.css';
import '@solana/wallet-adapter-react-ui/styles.css';
import '@rainbow-me/rainbowkit/styles.css';
- Wrapping your application providers. Head over to your main application file,to import the provider along with its default theme and wrap your app like this :
import React from "react";
import { QueryClient, QueryClientProvider } from '@tanstack/react-query';
import { whiteTheme, defaultTheme, WidgetProvider } from "@anyalt/widget";
const queryClient = new QueryClient();
const theme = 'default';
export const App = () => {
return (
{/* Your Application Components */}
);
};
- Import and integrate the Anyalt widget You can do this by creating a new component that imports and uses the AnyaltWidget to handle the User Interface, cross-chain swap as well as last-mile transactions as discussed above.
