Solana Web3 guide project

This project involves 3 main features - fetch information from various Solana Accounts, transfer SOL, transfer SPL Tokens. You can check branches for each feature.

Step 1: Setup Environment

• For convenience, let's develop our own code using VS Code. Let's assume that you have installed Node.js (version 18.0 or later).
• Also, we need wallet A and wallet B. To be precise, to send money from wallet A to wallet B, you will need the private key of wallet A and the public key of wallet B.
• Initialize your project using npm init.
• Install dependencies using this command:

npm install typescript ts-node @solana/web3.js @solana/spl-token dotenv bs58

• Check package.json file and edit script with Run commands.
• Install Typescript environment using tsc --init command.
• Edit tsconfig.json file like this:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es2016",
    "module": "commonjs",
    "outDir": "./dist",
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true,
    "strict": true,
    "skipLibCheck": true
  }
}

• .env file

SENDERWALLETPRIVATE_KEY="PRIVATE KEY OF WALLET A"
RECEIVERWALLETPUBLIC_KEY="PUBLIC KEY OF WALLET B"

Step 2: Main code (index.ts)

Step 3: Run the code

• In terminal, run this command:

npm run start

• If the transaction is successful, you will receive a transaction link from solscan.
