AxelarJS SDK

Coming soon

The axelarjs-sdk nodejs repo is currently private and can be accessed only with a NPM token. The repo will be made public shortly.

Overview

The AxelarJS SDK empowers developers to make cross-chain transfers using the Axelar network from their frontend.

Example use case: asset transfer

AxelarJS enables the transfer of crypto assets across any blockchain supported by Axelar.

Currently supported assets and chains:

| Supported Assets | Supported Blockchain Networks | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | AXL (Axelar native token)LUNA (Terra native token)UST (Terra stablecoin) | AvalancheAxelarEthereumFantomMoonbeamPolygonTerra |

Axelar will continue to add support for new assets and chains in the future.

Technical overview

The AxelarJS SDK is a npm dependency that includes libraries that make requests into the Axelar network.

Any request from the JS SDK is routed through a node REST server that redirects requests through a coordinated collection of microservices controlled by Axelar.

These microservices facilitate the relay of cross-chain transactions that run on top of the Axelar network.

AxelarJS is under active development

AxelarJS is under active development. The API might change. Please ensure you pull the latest from this repo post issues to Github.

Security mesures

AxelarJS employs security measures to protect our services from abuse. Currently every invocation of getDepositAddress requires frontend users to connect to a Web3 wallet and sign a message with a one-time code. Invocations to the API are also rate limited.
