Using Dynamic

Dynamic is a powerful web3 auth developer platform with built-in support for Gnosis Chain. It lets you integrate multiple wallets such as Coinbase Wallet, Metamask, and more into your app or website, handles network switching, multi-wallet linking and more.

Dynamic comes with Gnosis Chain built-in. You can play around with a live demo of Dynamic here and see a full video walkthrough here. In this tutorial, we'll go through how to set up Dynamic with Gnosis Chain.

You can see a CodeSandbox of the example below here (configured to Gnosis Chain).

Prerequisites​

Dynamic works with React today. You can go through the standard getting started guide here.

Step 1: Create a Dynamic account​

  1. Sign up to get an environment ID

  2. Create an organization and a set up your first project

  3. Copy your environmentID from the Dynamic overview page

  4. (optional) Configure your site's CORS origins

Step 2: Install the Dynamic npm package​

You can install Dynamic's SDK with either yarn or npm. We currently support React and NextJS.

npm install @dynamic-labs/sdk-react
# or yarn add @dynamic-labs/sdk-react

Step 3: Configure the SDK​

Copy the following snippet into your project and paste in your environmentId:

import { DynamicContextProvider, DynamicWidget} from '@dynamic-labs/sdk-react';

const App = () => (
  <DynamicContextProvider
     settings={{
       environmentId: 'ID'
    }}>
    <DynamicWidget /> 
  </DynamicContextProvider>
);

export default App;

Step 4: Turn on Gnosis Chain in your developer dashboard​

Now that we have the basic Dynamic setup, you can go to your developer dashboard, and select configurations from the left menu. Next, click on the EVM card and toggle Gnosis on. Note that you can also chose to toggle the default network, Ethereum, off.

Now that you put things together, you can see a CodeSandbox of the finished product here.

Next steps​

Now that you set up Dynamic with Gnosis Chain, there are many additional things you can explore:

  • Log in with your wallet, and see data in Dynamic's developer dashboard - Now that your widget is set up locally, try to log in with a wallet. As soon as you do, head over to the Dynamic developer dashboard and click on user management and analytics. You'll be able to see your user show up!
  • Customize your SDK design - There are many ways to customize the Dynamic modal to fit your needs (you can explore them in the SDK configuration section), but to start, we suggest setting a light/dark mode and a primary color for the modal, which you can do in the design section of your developer dashboard.
  • Explore how to use the Dynamic SDK - After your users connect their wallets, you'll want to interact with them for various reasons. You can read more about the SDK in Dynamic's docs.
