Getting Started

Looking to build a dApp on Guru? Following this documentation you can learn how and become part of the rich ecosystem of EVM builders on Cosmos. Whether you are building new use cases on Guru or porting an existing dApp from another chain, you'll want to check out the sections on

  1. Building and deploying EVM Smart Contracts
  2. Integrating wallets (e.g. Keplr and MetaMask) into your Frontend
  3. Available developer Tools

Why develop dApps on Guru?

Guru focuses on cross-chain innovation so that developers can build entirely new dApp experiences for their users. Deploying smart contracts on Guru is easy, as the Guru blockchain is fully compatible with Ethereum and its rich ecosystem of robust tooling, wallets, explorers, a surplus of assets, and intelligent end-users. At the same time, Guru allows developers to build scalable EVM dApp chains with the upcoming Guru SDK and it hosts one of the most active community governance that seeks fairness across all key actors.

Guru does this by leveraging the interoperability of the Cosmos Ecosystem and the market-dominating support for EVM development. This allows dApp developers to use Ethereum smart contracts to implement the business logic on-chain while having access to Cosmos chain functionalities, such as exchanging value with the rest of the Cosmos Ecosystem through the Inter Blockchain Communication Protocol (IBC).
