We build on Canton.

A dev stack, a wallet, apps, and the contributions in between.

Stack & SDK

The developer stack

A wallet-first toolchain for building on Canton, designed to compose with what already exists.

cn-dappbooster

Live

A wallet-first Canton dev stack: one-command LocalNet, Carpincho wallet, canton-connect-kit, and an end-to-end example dApp. Built to compose with existing Canton initiatives, not replace them.
