Features

Some of the notable features of Anchor include, but are not limited to:

• A user interface that supports common EOSIO functions (token transfers, resource management, governance, etc).
• Direct integration with Greymass Fuel, which provides limited free CPU/NET resources to every account on compatible networks.
• Support for nearly every EOSIO-based blockchain (EOS, Telos, WAX, etc), with new networks added as they launch.
• Locally encrypted key storage using AES-256 - your private keys never leave the wallet.
• Optional integration with Ledger Hardware Wallets for additional key security.
• Rich integration with external applications any EOSIO-based blockchain using the EOSIO Signing Request protocol.

A dedicated Anchor website will be released in the future with a more detailed breakdown of everything that Anchor offers. To experience it all yourself today, download and give it a try.

Build it yourself

If you'd rather build the application yourself, please ensure you have nodejs/npm/yarn already installed locally.

Note: If you are configuring this Electron application within a Windows development environment, it will involve additional steps.

git clone https://github.com/greymass/anchor.git anchor
cd anchor
nvm use v13
yarn --frozen-lockfile
cd app
yarn --frozen-lockfile
cd ..

Then, depending on what OS you use, either:

• MacOS: npm run package-mac
• Linux: npm run package-linux
• Windows: npm run package-win

You currently must build the binary for the desired operating system on that operating system. Windows builds must be built on Windows, macOS on macOS, etc.

After the build completes, the files will be located in the releases folder within the project folder.

Running in development mode

git clone https://github.com/greymass/anchor.git anchor
cd anchor
nvm use v13
yarn --frozen-lockfile
cd app
yarn --frozen-lockfile
cd ..
npm run dev
