SDK Resources#
SDKs (Software Development Kits) are used to accelerate the design and development of a product for the Dash Network. These resources can either be used to interface with an API provider or for the creation of standalone applications by forming transactions and/or performing various wallet functions.
Dash Developer Guide#
The Dash Developer Portal aims to provide the information you need to understand Dash and start building Dash-based applications. To make the best use of this documentation, you may want to install the current version of Dash Core and Dash Platform, either from source, from a pre-compiled executable or from Docker Hub.
Dash Core: https://docs.dash.org/core
Dash Platform: https://dashplatform.readme.io/
NodeJS/JavaScript: Dashcore#
Dashcore is a fork of Bitcore and operates as a full Dash node — your apps run directly on the peer-to-peer network. For wallet application development, additional indexes have been added into Dash for querying address balances, transaction history, and unspent outputs.
Platform: NodeJS / Javascript
Documentation: dashpay/dashcore-lib
Repository lib: dashpay/dashcore-lib
Repository node: dashpay/dashcore-node

Java: DashJ#
DashJ is a library for working with the Dash protocol. It can maintain a wallet, send/receive transactions (including InstantSend) without needing a local copy of Dash Core, and has many other advanced features. It’s implemented in Java but can be used from any JVM compatible language: examples in Python and JavaScript are included.
Platform: Java

Platform: iOS
Repository: dashpay/dashsync-iOS
.NET: NBitcoin#
NBitcoin is the most complete Bitcoin library for the .NET platform and has been patched to include support for Dash. It implements all most relevant Bitcoin Improvement Proposals (BIPs) and Dash Improvement Proposals (DIPs). It also provides low level access to Dash primitives so you can easily build your application on top of it.
Platform: .NET
