Ready to build on Geren? This guide will get you from signup to your first API call in minutes.
Step 1: Create your account
Visit dash.gerenchain.io and sign up with email or GitHub. Free tier is enough to follow along.
Step 2: Generate API keys
Navigate to your dashboard. Click Create Key. Scope it to a single chain to start.
Step 3: Make your first call
import { ethers } from "ethers";
const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider(
"https://eth-mainnet.gerenchain.io/YOUR_API_KEY"
);
const block = await provider.getBlock("latest");
console.log(block.number);
Next steps
Once you're connected, explore archive nodes, webhooks, and our indexer SDK in the docs.
