Starknet

Starknet is a permissionless Ethereum Layer 2 validity rollup developed by StarkWare, powered by STARK proofs and the Cairo smart contract language. Developers interact with Starknet via a versioned Starknet JSON-RPC (served by Pathfinder, Juno, and Papyrus full nodes as well as Infura / Alchemy / Blast / Nethermind providers), the Cairo toolchain (Scarb, Starknet Foundry, Cairo compiler, cairo-vm), client SDKs (starknet.js, starknet.py, starknet-rs), the StarkGate canonical bridge between Ethereum and Starknet, and Voyager / Starkscan block explorers.

Starknet publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network: JSON-RPC Specification and Starknet JSON RPC API API. Tagged areas include Layer 2, Ethereum, Validity Rollup, ZK, and Cairo.

The Starknet catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Starknet’s developer surface includes documentation, engineering blog, and 12 more developer resources.
