Quick Start

Create, build, sign, and submit — that's it

import { Address, Assets, createClient } from "@evolution-sdk/evolution"// 1. Create a clientconst client = createClient({  network: "preprod",  provider: { type: "blockfrost", baseUrl: "...", projectId: "..." },  wallet: { type: "seed", mnemonic: "your 24 words here" }})// 2. Build a transactionconst tx = await client.newTx()  .payToAddress({    address: Address.fromBech32("addr_test1..."),    assets: Assets.fromLovelace(5_000_000n)  })  .build()// 3. Sign and submitconst hash = await tx.sign().then(s => s.submit())

No manual UTxO selection. No fee calculation. No change handling.
Evolution SDK handles it all.
