| 21 | + |
| 22 | +To enhance the HyperEVM developer experience, we provide free public access to our professionally hosted Testnet RPC endpoint. Developers can use this endpoint to build Hyperliquid applications and configure it as a testnet RPC in browser wallets. For mainnet deployments, see available mainnet RPC URLs on the [Hyperliquid docs](https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/builder-tools/hyperevm-tools). |

| 35 | + |
| 36 | +### Ethers.js (JavaScript/TypeScript) |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +[Ethers.js](https://docs.ethers.org/v6/) is a library for interacting with Ethereum and EVM-compatible chains. |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +```javascript |
| 41 | +import { ethers } from "ethers" |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +const rpcUrl = "https://rpcs.chain.link/hyperevm/testnet" |
| 44 | +const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider(rpcUrl) |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +async function getBlock() { |
| 47 | + const blockNumber = await provider.getBlockNumber() |
| 48 | + console.log("Current Block Number:", blockNumber) |
| 49 | +} |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +getBlock() |
| 52 | +``` |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +### Viem (JavaScript/TypeScript) |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +[Viem](https://viem.sh/) is a TypeScript library for interacting with Ethereum and EVM-compatible chains. It provides modular, type-safe APIs as an alternative to ethers.js. |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +```javascript |
| 59 | +import { createPublicClient, http } from "viem" |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +const rpcUrl = "https://rpcs.chain.link/hyperevm/testnet" |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +const client = createPublicClient({ |
| 64 | + transport: http(rpcUrl), |
| 65 | +}) |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +async function getBlock() { |
| 68 | + const blockNumber = await client.getBlockNumber() |
| 69 | + console.log("Current Block Number:", blockNumber) |
| 70 | +} |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +getBlock() |
| 73 | +``` |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +### Web3.py (Python) |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +[Web3.py](https://web3py.readthedocs.io/) is a Python library for interacting with EVM-compatible chains. |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +```python |
| 80 | +from web3 import Web3 |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +rpc_url = "https://rpcs.chain.link/hyperevm/testnet" |
| 83 | +w3 = Web3(Web3.HTTPProvider(rpc_url)) |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +if w3.is_connected(): |
| 86 | + print("Connected to RPC!") |
| 87 | + block_number = w3.eth.block_number |
| 88 | + print("Current Block Number:", block_number) |
| 89 | +else: |
| 90 | + print("Failed to connect.") |
| 91 | +``` |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +### cURL (Testing) |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +```shell |
| 96 | +curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ |
| 97 | + --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_blockNumber","params":[],"id":1}' \ |
| 98 | + https://rpcs.chain.link/hyperevm/testnet |
| 99 | +``` |
| 100 | + |
| 101 | +**Expected Response**: |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | +```json |
| 104 | +{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "result": "0x1f92031" } |
| 105 | +``` |
| 106 | + |
