Welcome Polkadot and Kusama magician 👋

Let us introduce you to

Set of XCM tools for Polkadot and Kusama Paraverse

🧰 Our Development Focus #

• XCM SDK 🪄: A tool designed to unify the cross-chain experience on Polkadot and serve as a layer 2 protocol that enables seamless integration of XCM into your decentralized applications.
• XCM API ⚡️ (): An API that provides the ability to integrate XCM interoperability into your decentralized application in a package-less way, offloading heavy computing tasks from your decentralized application and reducing associated costs.
• XCM ROUTER ☄️ (): A tool aiming to provide the capability of cross-chain swaps where you receive different assets than those you send (e.g., send DOT from Polkadot and receive ASTR on Astar) — all within a single command.
• XCM Analyser 🔎: An analyser package to convert XCM Multilocations into a human-readable format.
• XCM Visualizator 🖼️: An application developed to visualize XCM within the Polkadot ecosystem.

All of our tools are completely free and fully open source 🧙‍♂️🪄

What is ParaSpell✨? #

ParaSpell is dedicated to enhancing XCM functionality by conducting in-depth research on every XCM-compatible Parachain. This research is then consolidated into XCM Tools, which standardize the diverse XCM implementations into easy-to-use, uniform tools. These tools enable you to seamlessly integrate the interoperability benefits of the Polkadot and Kusama ecosystems into your application within moments.

Why should I use ParaSpell✨?

Implementing Polkadot's flagship feature, XCM, into your application can sometimes be a complex task. Each Parachain may customize its XCM Pallets to meet specific needs, resulting in a wide variety of implementations. Supporting multiple Parachains in a consistent manner is therefore time-consuming. Fortunately, ParaSpell has already conducted this research and wrapped the necessary pallets from every compatible Parachain into its tools. Saving time is crucial when delivering a product, and ParaSpell helps you use it wisely.
