Full-stack Solana Development with React and Anchor

Learn how to build a complete decentralized application on Solana using React for the frontend and the Anchor framework for your on-chain programs.

Overview

This official Solana guide walks developers through building a full-stack decentralized application. It leverages the power of the Anchor framework for rapid Solana program development in Rust and uses React for a modern frontend experience.

Key learning points:

  • Setting up an Anchor project.
  • Defining program state and instructions with Anchor.
  • Writing and testing Solana programs using Anchor's testing framework.
  • Building a React frontend to interact with your deployed Solana program.
  • Connecting a wallet and handling transactions on the client-side.
  • Deploying both the on-chain program and the frontend application.

This tutorial is excellent for developers wanting a practical, hands-on approach to building end-to-end dApps on Solana.
