Building a Web3 portal: A complete guide to building the source code of Solana wallet development system

1. Architecture cornerstone: understanding the core components of Solana wallet

1. Key management module: The security heart of the system. This is the most core part that requires the most careful handling. The source code must implement based on Ed25519Elliptic curve key pair generation. The key is to follow BIP39Protocol to generate and manage mnemonic words, these 12 or 24 words are the only credentials to restore the wallet. At the same time, it is necessary to follow BIP44Hierarchical deterministic paths are used to derive countless addresses from a single mnemonic phrase, making it easier for users to manage multiple accounts. Encrypted and secure storage of private keys is a top priority, and the iOS Keychain and Android Keystore systems should be deeply integrated on the mobile terminal.
2. Blockchain Interaction Module: Communication Bridge with the Network The wallet needs to talk to the Solana network. Need to be integrated in source code @solana/web3.jslibrary, which is the official JavaScript SDK for interacting with the Solana blockchain. Through it, the wallet can connect to the RPC endpoint of the main network, development network or test network to implement key operations such as querying balances, obtaining block information, and constructing transactions. A stable RPC provider connection is the basis for the smooth operation of the wallet.

1. Transaction construction and signature module: Any on-chain operation by the executor of asset transfer, whether sending SOL or interacting with smart contracts, originates from this module. The source code needs to be responsible for constructing a transaction object containing instructions, the latest block hash and fee payment information. Then, the corresponding user's private key is used to digitally sign the transaction to ensure the legitimacy and non-tamperability of the transaction. Finally, the signed transaction is broadcast to the entire network over an RPC connection.
2. User Interface Module: Direct user touchpoints An intuitive and responsive UI is key to the wallet's widespread acceptance. Front-end source code is usually developed using modern frameworks such as React or Vue, and integrated with UI libraries such as Ant Design to speed up development. The interface needs to clearly display asset balances, provide send/receive functionality, manage transaction history, and have a secure area for backing up mnemonic phrases.

2. Key implementation paths for source code construction

1. The process of project initialization and dependency management begins with creating a new front-end project and introducing core dependencies using package management tools such as npm or yarn. The most important thing is @solana/web3.js, which provides the full ability to interact with the chain. In order to improve development efficiency and seamlessly integrate with the ecosystem, it is strongly recommended to introduce @solana/wallet-adapterSeries library. This tool library provides context management, a unified wallet connection interface and preset UI components, which can greatly simplify support for external wallets such as Phantom.
2. The life cycle management of mnemonic words and key pairs is in the source code. The generation of mnemonic words should call strictly audited encryption library functions to ensure randomness. When a user creates a new wallet, the interface needs to compulsorily and safely guide the user to back up the mnemonic phrase and clearly inform the user of its importance. When importing the wallet, the source code logic needs to be able to verify the validity of the mnemonic phrase and correctly derive the corresponding key pair and address.

1. Implement asset inquiry and transfer functions and balance inquiry function by callingConnectionObjectgetBalanceMethod can be implemented by passing in the public key address. The function of sending SOL is more complicated: you need to build a SystemProgram.transfercommand, add it to a new transaction, set the fee and the latest block hash, then sign it with the sender’s private key, and finally passsendAndConfirmTransactionMethod broadcasts the transaction and waits for confirmation.
2. Integrated DApp ecosystem: WalletConnect protocol In order for users to interact with thousands of DApps within the wallet, the source code must implement the function of the wallet as a provider. This is usually achieved by integrating the WalletConnect protocol. This protocol allows users to securely connect DApps in desktop browsers with mobile wallets by scanning QR codes. After integrating this protocol, the wallet can receive transaction requests from DApps and display them in the native interface for user confirmation.

3. Beyond the Basics: Advanced Functions and Security Considerations

• SPL token support: In addition to SOL, the wallet also needs to support the SPL standard token. This requires integration @solana/spl-tokenLibrary to display token balances, implement token transfers and other functions.
• NFT Gallery: An interface that intuitively displays the NFT assets owned by the user. It needs to obtain the NFT metadata from the chain or index service and render it.
• Transaction history and index: A simple RPC interface may not be able to meet complex transaction query needs. Backend services or integration with index protocols such as The Graph are usually required to provide a better experience.
• Security audit and continuous testing: Before deployment, the entire source code must undergo a professional security audit, especially the key generation, storage and transaction signature parts. At the same time, a complete unit testing and integration testing process needs to be established to ensure the stability of each update.
