Question 1

How do I connect a Keplr wallet using Cosmos Kit?

Accepted Answer

Install the @cosmos-kit/react package and use the useWallet hook or provided components. The documentation includes examples for initializing the adapter with Keplr and other supported wallets.

Question 2

Should I use Cosmos Kit or interchain-kit for my new project?

Accepted Answer

For new projects, interchain-kit is recommended as it's the official successor with broader Interchain ecosystem support. Cosmos Kit is better suited for maintaining existing Cosmos-specific applications that don't need future updates.

Question 3

Does Cosmos Kit support mobile wallets?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it includes WalletConnect support via the @cosmos-kit/walletconnect package, allowing connections with mobile wallets that are compatible with the Cosmos ecosystem, such as through QR codes.

Question 4

How can I get a CosmJS signer with Cosmos Kit?

Accepted Answer

Use the hooks provided in the documentation to retrieve CosmJS signers for Stargate or CosmWasm. This enables signing transactions directly, but requires proper configuration of chain information and wallet connections.

Question 5

Can I use Cosmos Kit with Vue.js or Svelte?

Accepted Answer

While optimized for React, the core packages and 'vanilla' example demonstrate how to integrate with other frameworks, but it involves more manual setup and lacks out-of-the-box components for non-React environments.

Question 6

Is Cosmos Kit still actively maintained?

Accepted Answer

The GitHub shows recent activity with tests and badges, but the README's upgrade notice to interchain-kit suggests that active development has shifted, so long-term maintenance for Cosmos Kit is uncertain.
