🚀 Quick Start

Option 1: Use the SDK in Your Project

# Install the SDK
npm install @fhevm/universal-sdk

# Initialize in your app
import { createFHEVM } from '@fhevm/universal-sdk'

const fhevm = createFHEVM({
  network: 'sepolia',
  gatewayUrl: 'https://gateway.sepolia.zama.ai'
})

// Encrypt data
const encrypted = await fhevm.encrypt(42)

// Interact with contracts
const tx = await fhevm.contract(contractAddress, abi).submitValue(encrypted)

That's it! Less than 10 lines to get started with FHE.

See the examples/PrivateRideShare directory for full implementation, including migration guide from static HTML to React.

Example 3: Node.js Backend

import { FHEVMClient } from '@fhevm/universal-sdk'

const client = new FHEVMClient({ network: 'sepolia' })

// Encrypt data server-side
const encryptedValue = await client.encrypt(1000)

// Submit to blockchain
await client.submitTransaction({
  to: contractAddress,
  data: contract.interface.encodeFunctionData('store', [encryptedValue])
})

Example 4: React Hook

import { useFHEVM, useEncryption } from '@fhevm/universal-sdk/react'

function MyComponent() {
  const { instance, isReady } = useFHEVM()
  const { encrypt } = useEncryption()

  const handleSubmit = async (value: number) => {
    const encrypted = await encrypt(value)
    // Use encrypted value with your contract
  }

  return <button onClick={() => handleSubmit(42)}>Submit Private Data</button>
}

📚 Documentation

Core Concepts

1. Initialization

import { createFHEVM } from '@fhevm/universal-sdk'

const fhevm = createFHEVM({
  network: 'sepolia',           // or 'mainnet', 'localhost'
  gatewayUrl: 'https://...',    // Zama gateway URL
  contractAddress: '0x...',     // Your FHE contract
  abi: [...],                   // Contract ABI
})

2. Encryption

// Encrypt different data types
const encryptedBool = await fhevm.encrypt(true, 'ebool')
const encryptedUint32 = await fhevm.encrypt(42, 'euint32')
const encryptedUint64 = await fhevm.encrypt(1000000n, 'euint64')
const encryptedAddress = await fhevm.encrypt('0x...', 'eaddress')

3. Decryption

// Request decryption from gateway
const decrypted = await fhevm.decrypt(encryptedHandle, 'euint32')
console.log(decrypted) // 42

4. Contract Interaction

// Read encrypted data
const encryptedValue = await fhevm.contract.read('getEncryptedBalance', [userAddress])

// Write encrypted data
const tx = await fhevm.contract.write('transfer', [recipientAddress, encryptedAmount])
await tx.wait()

Advanced Usage

Custom Provider

import { ethers } from 'ethers'

const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider('https://your-rpc-url')
const fhevm = createFHEVM({ provider })

Multiple Contracts

const contract1 = fhevm.getContract(address1, abi1)
const contract2 = fhevm.getContract(address2, abi2)

await contract1.write('functionA', [arg1])
await contract2.write('functionB', [arg2])

Event Listening

fhevm.contract.on('Transfer', (from, to, amount) => {
  console.log(`Transfer from ${from} to ${to}`)
})

🧪 Testing

# Run unit tests
npm test

# Run integration tests
npm run test:integration

# Generate coverage report
npm run test:coverage

🔒 Security

• All encryption happens client-side
• Private keys never leave the client
• Gateway only handles decryption requests with proper authorization
• Follows FHEVM security best practices

🎨 Framework Examples

Next.js App Router

// app/providers.tsx
'use client'
import { FHEVMProvider } from '@fhevm/universal-sdk/react'

export function Providers({ children }) {
  return (
    <FHEVMProvider config={fhevmConfig}>
      {children}
    </FHEVMProvider>
  )
}

Vue 3 Composition API

// composables/useFHEVM.ts
import { useFHEVM } from '@fhevm/universal-sdk/vue'

export function usePrivateData() {
  const { encrypt, decrypt, contract } = useFHEVM()

  const submitPrivateValue = async (value: number) => {
    const encrypted = await encrypt(value)
    return contract.write('submit', [encrypted])
  }

  return { submitPrivateValue }
}

Vanilla JavaScript

// No build tools required
import { createFHEVM } from 'https://unpkg.com/@fhevm/universal-sdk'

const fhevm = createFHEVM({ network: 'sepolia' })
const encrypted = await fhevm.encrypt(42)

📊 Performance

• Encryption: ~50ms average
• Decryption request: ~200ms average
• Contract call overhead: ~10% vs standard transactions
• Optimized bundle size: 45KB gzipped
