Connect your dapp
Core reaches your dapp over three transports. Which one applies depends on where your users run Core, not on anything about your dapp's stack:
| Surface | Transport | What you integrate |
|---|---|---|
| Core Extension | Injected EIP-1193 provider | Nothing Core-specific — discovery via EIP-6963 finds it |
| Core Mobile | WalletConnect | A WalletConnect client such as Reown AppKit |
| Core Web | The wallet is the app | Nothing — users act from Core Web itself |
The practical answer for most dapps: use a connection library — Wagmi, RainbowKit, or similar. They implement EIP-6963 and WalletConnect at once, so both Core Extension and Core Mobile work with zero Core-specific code. The library guides show the exact configs.
Integrating by hand instead? Follow this path:
- Detect Core — find the provider without colliding with other wallets.
- Request accounts and handle provider events.
- Consult the reference for the methods you call.
Building for the Avalanche X and P-Chains (staking, cross-chain transfers)? That surface is Core-specific by nature — start at Avalanche X, P, and C-Chain.
