React Native
Follow this guide to integrate Portal in your app.
Portal provides MPC wallets and dApp connections for exchanges and their users.
To integrate Portal, an exchange adds a client library to their mobile app and a few server API endpoints.

The Portal library connects your mobile app and server with the web3 ecosystem.
One of our founders, Rami, walks you through how to get started with our React Native SDK in two parts.
Overview of the Portal React Native dependencies
Completing you first transaction with Portal
The basic Portal setup consists of three packages:
@portal-hq/core
- The core Portal library@portal-hq/keychain
- An adapter for storing MPC signing shares on-device@portal-hq/gdrive-storage
- An adapter for storing MPC backup shares off-device
These pieces allow you to initialize
Portal
in your app.yarn
npm
yarn add @portal-hq/core @portal-hq/keychain @portal-hq/gdrive-storage
npm install --save @portal-hq/core @portal-hq/keychain @portal-hq/gdrive-storage
Because these packages have native module dependencies there is some additional linking required to make it work with your React Native project.
Explicitly install the native module packages in your project.
yarn
npm
yarn add react-native-keychain react-native-rsa-native
npm install --save react-native-keychain react-native-rsa-native
The core Portal library relies on a native module to support MPC behaviors. In order to enable this functionality, you must properly link Portal's MPC client to your React Native project.
