Many Coding Languages, Many Great Web3 Libraries

Across coding languages you’ll find many great web3 libraries. In most cases the best place to start would be to consult the documentation of the web3 library you’re using OR, as we’ll recommend below, build with AI tools.

If you are starting from your favorite tools’ documentation, look for json rpc provider or client HTTP transport. That’s where you’ll configure your Alchemy URL!

Essentially you will be pointing your library to your node, and you’ll be using Alchemy to host your nodes for you!

Quickstart with AI

There’s no easier way than to get started with something like cursor or claude code as shown in this video:

Simply tell your AI tool to “write a script using ethers.js connected to Alchemy” and you’ll be off to the races!

One key thing to keep in mind is that the AI tool may not have the most recent documentation available, so often times it may be useful to tell it to consult the most recent docs.

For all Alchemy docs you can scroll up to the top of the page and click “Copy Page” to get the info your AI tool needs to be completely up to date with the particular documentation!
