Web3.js is a collection of libraries that allow you to interact with a local or remote Ethereum node using HTTP, IPC, or WebSocket. It provides functionalities for sending transactions, interacting with smart contracts, and more.

Ethers.js is a library for interacting with the Ethereum blockchain and its ecosystem. It provides a concise and consistent interface for sending transactions, interacting with smart contracts, and more. Similar to Web3.js, Ethers.js does not specifically focus on WalletConnect functionalities but offers a comprehensive set of tools for Ethereum development.
Web3Modal is a library that allows developers to easily integrate multiple wallet providers into their dApps. It supports WalletConnect, MetaMask, and other popular wallets.
