typescript-move

library1.1.1jsnpmunverified

A TypeScript to Sui Move transpiler that allows developers to write Sui smart contracts using TypeScript syntax. Current stable version is 1.1.1, with active development and a v2 documentation available. It bridges the gap between web and blockchain development, enabling familiar TypeScript patterns for Move smart contracts on Sui. Key differentiators: no new language to learn, leverages TypeScript tooling, targets the Sui blockchain specifically.
