A modern interface for the Chia wallet
You will need the existing Chia CLI/wallet installed already, you can find that at the official Chia Network Github page.
We provide pre-built versions of XCH Wallet on the Releases page. All of the pre-built versions are automatically generated by Github Actions using Electron Builder Action.
First clone the repository. Then, navigate to the directory in your terminal and use the npm install command. To build the app, use npx --no-install electron-builder. You may be prompted by your OS for a password to sign the app for development. Please wait a few minutes for this command to run. Afterwards, you will find the app in the /dist folder within the directory.
When using the macOS version of XCH Wallet, you may encounter a warning that prevents you from opening the app. This warning just means that the app has not been signed (since it was done transparently with a Github Action). To fix this issue, simply right-click on the app and click the "Open" option, then confirm the decision in the popup menu. If you are uncomfortable with running the prebuilt version, we encourage that you follow the manual build instructions above.
When using the windows version of XCH Wallet, you may encounter a warning that prevents you from opening the app. This warning just means that the app has not been signed (since it was done transparently with a Github Action). To fix this issue, simply click the "More info" text on the popup and click the "Run anyway" option. If you are uncomfortable with running the prebuilt version, we encourage that you follow the manual build instructions above.
If you encounter an error when launching the app, there was an issue accessing the Chia CLI. The wallet will attempt to connect to the CLI by guessing the filepath based on your operating system, but if there is an error, we recommend you add the chia command to your PATH so that the wallet can access the CLI.
For security reasons, there is currently no way to generate or add keys through the XCH Wallet interface. To create or add keys, please use the CLI or official wallet.
We are not in any way responsible for loss of funds resulting of your use of our wallet interface or services. Please follow best practices to keep your keys and funds safe and report any security vulnerabilities of our app in the Issues tab. We highly recommend that you build from source so that you can audit the code yourself and make sure that nobody has tampered with the wallet software.
