Linea

Linea is an Ethereum zkEVM Layer 2 developed by Consensys, offering full Ethereum equivalence under a zero-knowledge proving system that finalizes state to Ethereum L1. Linea mainnet runs at chain ID 59144 with public JSON-RPC at rpc.linea.build, and a Sepolia testnet at chain ID 59141 at rpc.sepolia.linea.build. Developer surfaces include Linea-specific JSON-RPC extensions (linea_estimateGas, linea_getProof), the Linea SDK, the canonical Linea Bridge, Lineascan block explorer, the Linea POH/attestation system, and a published Linea Stack for deploying Linea-equivalent chains.

Linea publishes 10 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Blockchain, Layer 2, Ethereum, zkEVM, and EVM Equivalence.

Linea’s developer surface includes documentation, getting-started guide, API reference, GitHub presence, support, engineering blog, status page, and 14 more developer resources.

Linea SDK

Official TypeScript SDK for interacting with Linea — message-service helpers, bridge claim flows, and L1/L2 utility methods used by app developers and bridge integrators.

Linea Bridge

Canonical Ethereum-Linea bridge for ETH and supported ERC-20 tokens, built on Linea's message service. UI lives at bridge.linea.build.

Lineascan Block Explorer

Etherscan-style block explorer for Linea mainnet — transactions, blocks, contracts, tokens, batches, and Solidity source verification.
