The Unpaid Backbone of Open Source: Solo Maintainers Face Increasing Security Demands
Solo open source maintainers face burnout and security challenges, with 60% unpaid and 60% considering quitting.
Fortmatic JavaScript SDK lets developers conveniently connect their web apps to the Ethereum blockchain - allowing end-users to interact with their apps on any modern browser, without requiring them to download any browser extensions or mobile dApp browsers.
See the Developer Documentation.
Integrating your app with Fortmatic will need our npm package:
npm install --save fortmatic
Alternatively you can add this script tag to your app’s <head>
:
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/fortmatic/dist/fortmatic.js"></script>
Sign up or log in to your Developer Dashboard to receive API keys that will allow your app to interact with the Ethereum blockchain through Fortmatic.
You can then integrate by simply replacing your web3 provider with Fortmatic provider. Now instead of the MetaMask Chrome Extension opening, a Fortmatic modal will open instead - requiring no extra user downloads, and works on all modern desktop and mobile Chrome, Safari and Firefox browsers.
import Fortmatic from 'fortmatic';
// Create client and replace web3 provider
const fm = new Fortmatic('YOUR_API_KEY');
web3 = new Web3(fm.getProvider());
// Send transactions the way your are used to
web3.eth.sendTransaction({/* ... */});
