@polkagate/apps-config

This package contains the configuration and network metadata used across PolkaGate products. It can also be customized (via PR) to support additional chains and networks.

Adding Support for a New Chain

To add a new chain to PolkaGate:

1. Add the chain’s genesis hash, Edit ./networks/genesis.ts

2. Add network metadata, update ./networks/knownSubstrate.ts

3. Add your chain’s endpoints to the relevant file under ./endpoints/{production, productionRelay, testing, testingRelay* depending on your deployment.

4. Add chain logo and color

   • Place the logo in ui/logos/chains or ui/logos/nodes (the latter is generally used).
   • Run yarn build:images to generate inline image assets.
   • In your endpoint config, set:
     • ui.color — the chain’s primary color
     • ui.logo — the imported logo reference

Naming Recommendation

It’s recommended to use distinct chain names for each relay network. For example:

-	Acala — on Polkadot
-	Karura — on Kusama
-	Mandala (or Acala Testnet) — as the test network
