A mobile dApp starter kit enabling developers to build secure, mobile-first decentralized applications on Ethereum and EVM-compatible chains with built-in tools like wallet, contract debugger, and custom hooks.

Scaffold-ETH-Mobile: Mobile dApp Starter Kit for Ethereum and EVM-Compatible Chains

Project Overview

Scaffold-ETH-Mobile is an open-source, up-to-date starter kit designed to streamline the development of mobile decentralized applications (dApps) on Ethereum and other EVM-compatible blockchains. It provides developers with essential tools such as a built-in wallet, contract debugger, and custom hooks, simplifying the process of building secure, mobile-first dApps. Scaffold-ETH-Mobile integrates Hardhat for smart contract development and React Native for mobile application development, making it easier for developers to build on-the-go dApps with full EVM compatibility.

Mission Statement

Our mission is to enhance the mobile development ecosystem within the Ethereum and EVM-compatible space, focusing on improving the developer experience. Scaffold-ETH-Mobile empowers developers to quickly and efficiently build mobile-first decentralized applications that prioritize usability, scalability, and security.

Problem Statement

As the decentralized ecosystem grows, the demand for high-quality mobile dApps increases. However, current tools for developing mobile dApps are fragmented and inefficient, especially on Ethereum and EVM-compatible chains. Developers face challenges managing smart contracts, building user-friendly interfaces, and ensuring wallet security—all on mobile platforms. This lack of streamlined solutions limits the speed and quality of mobile dApp development and adoption.

Proposed Solution

Scaffold-ETH-Mobile offers a comprehensive mobile-first development environment tailored to Ethereum and EVM-compatible blockchains. By integrating essential development tools and features, it simplifies the mobile dApp development process:

🧑‍💻 Contract Debugger: View contract details such as addresses, balances, variables, and functions. Scaffold-ETH-Mobile allows real-time interaction with smart contracts to make development faster and more efficient.

Contract Debugger

💳 In-Built Wallet: A secure mobile crypto wallet for managing funds, signing transactions, and interacting with contracts on multiple EVM-compatible chains, offering a seamless user experience.

Wallet

✅ Contract Hot Reload: Automatically updates the mobile frontend to reflect real-time changes in deployed smart contracts, reducing development time and friction.

🪝 Custom Hooks: A collection of React hooks with TypeScript autocompletion, designed to simplify interactions with Ethereum and other EVM-compatible smart contracts, improving developer productivity.

🧱 Web3 Components: Pre-built components to quickly assemble mobile dApp frontends, enabling developers to focus on functionality instead of spending time building from scratch.

By providing these tools, Scaffold-ETH-Mobile drastically reduces the time and effort required to build mobile dApps, making development more accessible to both new and experienced developers.

Project Roadmap

Phase 1: Core Development (Completed)

  • Implemented in-built wallet, contract hot reload, contract debugger, and custom hooks.

Phase 2: Community Testing & Feedback (Next 3-6 months)

  • Gather feedback from early users to refine and optimize features.
  • Enhance wallet functionality for ERC20, ERC721 and ERC1155 token support.
  • Expand integration with additional development tools.

Phase 3: Feature Expansion (6-12 months)

  • Introduce advanced debugging features and analytics.
  • Build additional components for complex mobile dApp frontends.
  • Extend support for Layer 2 solutions and non-EVM chains.
