Quickstart

From install script to running node in under a minute

One binary covers wallet generation, node operation, genesis, devnet orchestration and the gateway. No client/server install dance.

bash
# 1. Install the karoowa binary
curl -fsSL https://install.karoowa.io | sh


# 2. Generate a wallet and start a single-node devnet
karoowa wallet new --output ./validator.key
karoowa node \
  --validator-key ./validator.key \
  --consensus poa \
  --data-dir ./.karoowa/data \
  --rpc-port 8545


# 3. Talk to it via the unified gateway (JSON-RPC, REST, WebSocket)
curl -s http://localhost:8545/health
