Welcome to near-kit. If you have built on NEAR before, you know that the tooling can sometimes feel… heavy. near-kit is an attempt to fix that. It is a modern, lightweight, and opinionated TypeScript SDK designed to make interacting with the NEAR blockchain feel as simple as using fetch.

​
Why near-kit?

Human-Readable Units

No more calculating zeros. Write "10.5 NEAR" or "30 Tgas" — the library handles conversions.

Fluent API

Chainable builder pattern that makes your code read like a sentence.

Type Safety

Full TypeScript support with typed errors and contract interfaces.

Universal

Same API for backend scripts, frontend dApps, and integration tests.
