​
Package Installation

Install CreateKit using your preferred package manager: 
npm install @b3dotfun/basemint
CreateKit is built with TypeScript and provides full type definitions out of the box.

​
Dependencies

CreateKit is built on top of modern web3 technologies and requires the following peer dependencies: 
npm install viem @wagmi/core

​
Environment Setup

​
1. Configure Chain Networks

CreateKit provides pre-configured chain definitions for B3 networks:
chains.ts
import { b3Mainnet, b3Testnet } from '@b3dotfun/basemint'

// B3 Mainnet (Production)
console.log('Chain ID:', b3Mainnet.id) // 8333
console.log('Name:', b3Mainnet.name)
console.log('RPC URL:', b3Mainnet.rpcUrls.default.http[0])

// B3 Testnet (Development)
console.log('Chain ID:', b3Testnet.id) // 1993
console.log('Name:', b3Testnet.name)
console.log('RPC URL:', b3Testnet.rpcUrls.default.http[0])

​
2. Initialize Viem Client

Set up your viem client for interacting with the blockchain:
client.ts
import { createPublicClient, createWalletClient, http } from 'viem'
import { privateKeyToAccount } from 'viem/accounts'
import { b3Testnet } from '@b3dotfun/basemint'

// Public client for reading data
export const publicClient = createPublicClient({
  chain: b3Testnet,
  transport: http()
})

// Wallet client for transactions (for server-side usage)
export const walletClient = createWalletClient({
  chain: b3Testnet,
  transport: http(),
  account: privateKeyToAccount(process.env.PRIVATE_KEY as `0x${string}`)
})

​
3. Environment Variables

Create a .env file in your project root:
.env
# Required for signing transactions
PRIVATE_KEY=0x...

# Optional: Custom RPC endpoints
B3_MAINNET_RPC=https://your-custom-rpc.com
B3_TESTNET_RPC=https://your-custom-testnet-rpc.com
Never commit private keys to version control. Use environment variables or secure key management solutions.

​
Framework Integration

​
Next.js Setup

For Next.js applications, create a configuration file:
lib/createkit.ts
import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem'
import { b3Testnet } from '@b3dotfun/basemint'
import { 
  CollectionManager, 
  RewardTracker, 
  BaseMintStorage 
} from '@b3dotfun/basemint'

// Initialize clients
export const publicClient = createPublicClient({
  chain: b3Testnet,
  transport: http()
})

// Initialize CreateKit managers
export const collectionManager = new CollectionManager(publicClient)
export const rewardTracker = new RewardTracker(publicClient)
export const storage = new BaseMintStorage({
  baseUrl: 'https://api.basemint.fun'
})

​
React/Vite Setup

src/lib/createkit.ts
import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem'
import { b3Testnet } from '@b3dotfun/basemint'
import { CollectionManager } from '@b3dotfun/basemint'

export const publicClient = createPublicClient({
  chain: b3Testnet,
  transport: http(import.meta.env.VITE_RPC_URL)
})

export const collectionManager = new CollectionManager(publicClient)

​
Verify Installation

Test your installation with a simple script:
test-installation.ts
import { b3Testnet, CollectionManager } from '@b3dotfun/basemint'
import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem'

async function testInstallation() {
  try {
    // Create client
    const client = createPublicClient({
      chain: b3Testnet,
      transport: http()
    })

    // Initialize manager
    const manager = new CollectionManager(client)
    
    // Test connection
    const blockNumber = await client.getBlockNumber()
    console.log('✅ Successfully connected to B3 Testnet')
    console.log(`📊 Current block number: ${blockNumber}`)
    
    // Test contract interaction
    const factoryAddress = manager.getFactoryAddress()
    console.log(`🏭 Factory address: ${factoryAddress}`)
    
    console.log('🎉 CreateKit installation successful!')
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('❌ Installation test failed:', error)
  }
}

testInstallation()
Run the test script: 
npx tsx test-installation.ts

​
TypeScript Configuration

Ensure your tsconfig.json includes the necessary configurations:
tsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "strict": true,
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true,
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "skipLibCheck": true,
    "target": "ES2020",
    "module": "ESNext",
    "lib": ["ES2020", "DOM"]
  }
}
