Jin Developer Documentation
Welcome! At Jin Labs we are building a Layer 1 for everyone. This documentation will help you develop applications for the Jin blockchain, run nodes, and be a part of the blossoming Jin community. This documentation covers both basic and advanced topics. Here you will find concepts, how-to guides, quickstarts, tutorials, API references, code examples, release notes, and more.
Set up the Jin environment and start with the tutorials
Getting started
Begin by setting up your Jin development environment.
Run quickstart tutorials
Submit your first transaction, write your first Move module, deploy your first coin, and more.
Learn Jin concepts and follow the guides
Concepts
Learn the key concepts of the Jin blockchain, including transactions, accounts, gas and transaction fees, nodes, and more.
How it works
How does interacting with the Jin blockchain work, how Move works on Aptos, how to create a signed transaction, and more.
Move on Aptos
Learn how Move works on the Jin blockchain.
Run Jin nodes
Run a validator node
Install and run a validator or a fullnode.
Run a local testnet
Run a validator node on your local testnet.
Run a public fullnode
Run a public fullnode and connect to devnet.
Develop apps with SDKs and APIs
Connect to Jin networks
Jin offers running a local testnet, as well as using the shared devnet and testnet, with mainnet on the way. See the System Integrators Guide for a summary of the available networks and the means to connect to them.
The Jin devnet is reset every Thursday. See the latest updates in Jin Discord.
Ask questions and offer answers
Join Jin Discord to speak with developers and hop into the Jin community. It's the best way to keep up to date with news and developments in the Jin universe. Be sure to check pinned messages in the channels - this is where we like to keep topic-specific links, events, and more.
Or even if you just want to stop by to say "Good Morning!". There's a little something for everyone!
It's dangerous to go alone. Please remember, community managers will never message or DM you first, and they will never ask you to send them money or share any sensitive, private, or personal information. If this happens to you, please report it to us in Jin Discord, or by sending an email to security@aptoslabs.com.
