Use wallet

Integrate Algorand/AVM wallet connections using @txnlab/use-wallet v4.x. Use when building dApps that need wallet connectivity (Pera, Defly, Lute, Kibisis, Exodus, WalletConnect, etc.), transaction signing, data signing (ARC-60/SIWA), network switching, or wallet state management in vanilla JS/TS, React, Vue, SolidJS, or Svelte applications. Also covers the companion UI component library @txnlab/use-wallet-ui-react for drop-in wallet buttons and menus.From its SKILL.md

Quick Reference: Supported Wallets

Wallet	WalletId	Required Package
Pera	`PERA`	`@perawallet/connect`
Defly	`DEFLY`	`@blockshake/defly-connect`
Defly Web (beta)	`DEFLY_WEB`	`@agoralabs-sh/avm-web-provider`
Exodus	`EXODUS`	—
Kibisis	`KIBISIS`	`@agoralabs-sh/avm-web-provider`
Lute	`LUTE`	`lute-connect`
WalletConnect	`WALLETCONNECT`	`@walletconnect/sign-client`, `@walletconnect/modal`
Magic	`MAGIC`	`magic-sdk`, `@magic-ext/algorand`
Web3Auth	`WEB3AUTH`	`@web3auth/modal`, `@web3auth/base`, `@web3auth/base-provider`
W3 Wallet	`W3_WALLET`	—
KMD	`KMD`	— (dev only)
Mnemonic	`MNEMONIC`	— (test only, never MainNet)
Custom	`CUSTOM`	— (implement CustomProvider)

Wallets that require no extra package use built-in browser APIs or AVM web provider.

Key Patterns

Minimal Setup (React)

import {
  WalletProvider,
  WalletManager,
  NetworkId,
  WalletId,
} from '@txnlab/use-wallet-react'

const manager = new WalletManager({
  wallets: [WalletId.PERA, WalletId.DEFLY, WalletId.LUTE],
  defaultNetwork: NetworkId.TESTNET,
})

function App() {
  return (
    <WalletProvider manager={manager}>
      <YourApp />
    </WalletProvider>
  )
}

Accessing Wallet State

const {
  wallets,
  activeAddress,
  isReady,
  signTransactions,
  transactionSigner,
  algodClient,
} = useWallet()
const {
  activeNetwork,
  setActiveNetwork,
  updateAlgodConfig,
  resetNetworkConfig,
} = useNetwork()

Important Notes

v4.x requires algosdk v3 — see migration guide if upgrading from v3.x
In v4.0.0, network features moved from useWallet to a separate useNetwork hook/composable/primitive
Default networks (MainNet, TestNet, BetaNet, LocalNet) use Nodely's free API
Some wallet providers require signature requests from direct user interaction (button clicks)
Only Lute supports ARC-60 data signing (signData)
