Quickstart

By the end of this tutorial, you’ll have a working NextJS application with embedded smart wallets, social login, and gasless transactions.

The fastest way to get started is using our Quickstart widget in the Alchemy Dashboard.

The quickstart will install this Next.js template: Check out the quickstart template source code on GitHub.

1. Use the Dashboard Quickstart

1. Go to the Smart Wallets Quickstart in the Alchemy Dashboard

2. Click get started to pre-generate an example API key and policy ID for testing

3. Follow the 3-step process:

   • Create new app: Copy the provided npx create-next-app command
   npmyarnpnpm

   $
   npx create-next-app my-smart-wallets-app -e https://github.com/alchemyplatform/smart-wallets-quickstart

   • Set up environment: Copy the pre-configured .env variables (includes your API key and policy ID) from the dashboard
     • Alternatively, create your own app and configuration at the Smart Wallets Dashboard to get an API key
     • You can also set up your own paymaster policy at the Gas Manager Dashboard
   • Run app: Use the provided run command
   npmyarnpnpm

   $
   npm run dev

The quickstart widget automatically provides you with:

• ✅ Pre-configured API key (NEXT_PUBLIC_ALCHEMY_API_KEY)
• ✅ Pre-configured paymaster policy ID (NEXT_PUBLIC_ALCHEMY_POLICY_ID)
• ✅ Ready-to-use commands
• ✅ Default network set to Arbitrum Sepolia testnet
  • Uses an example NFT contract deployed on this network for the demo

2. That’s it!

Your app will be running with embedded smart wallets using social login, and gas sponsorship enabled out of the box ✨
