title: Substrate API Sidecar accounts rc node API
description: '> ⚠️ **Deprecation Notice** — `substrate-api-sidecar` is deprecated in favor of
> [`polkadot-rest-api`](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-rest-api), a ground-up Rust rewrite
> built on [`subxt`](https://github.com/paritytech/subxt) with 1:1 API compatibility (endpoints
> served under `/v1/`, e.g. `/v1/blocks/head`), stable memory under sustained load, significantly
> lower latency and higher throughput, and native SCALE decoding via `parity-scale-codec`.
