Deep dive into CosmJS

CosmJS Advanced

Continue your work on CosmJS and explore how to use and apply it to your checkers blockchain to create custom objects and messages. Further, you will discover how to give your application-specific blockchain a proper GUI and integrate it with CosmJS and Keplr.

The chapter also deals with backend scripts and demonstrates how to use them for game indexing, so that you are all set to continue developing using CosmJS.

# In this chapter

In this chapter, you will:

  • Learn how to create new CosmJS messages, transactions, and methods for your players to interact with your specific checkers module and blockchain.
  • Learn how to send many transactions in a batch and into a single block.
  • Explore how to introduce CosmJS into an existing checkers GUI TypeScript project, with a Keplr integration.
  • Use CosmJS on a backend server to offer an indexing service and improve the user experience.

This week, make sure to submit Coding Exercise 4 once you feel ready to test your knowledge.

The exercise will be available until the Final Exam period closes on February 1st, 2024, but it is recommended to attempt it immediately after completing the Week 5 content.

# Next up

Dive into creating custom objects and custom messages before developing a GUI and integrating CosmJS and Keplr into the GUI.

Then, you can take a closer look at backend scripts for game indexing.
