Installation

npm install @web3modal/wagmi wagmi viem

You can find more details about the installation in the WalletConnect documentation.

Implementation

You can start Web3Modal configuration using either default or custom mode.

Default mode will implement WalletConnect, Browser Wallets (injected), Wagmi's public provider and WalletConnect's provider.

Start by importing createWeb3Modal, defaultWagmiConfig and wagmi packages, then create wagmiConfig using defaultWagmiConfig function as shown below. Finally, pass wagmiConfig to createWeb3Modal.

Find an example below:

import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom/client";
import { createWeb3Modal, defaultWagmiConfig } from "@web3modal/wagmi/react";
import { WagmiConfig, useAccount } from "wagmi";
import { zkSync } from "wagmi/chains";
import "./index.css";

// 1. Get projectId
const projectId = <PROJECT_ID>;

// 2. Create wagmiConfig
const chains = [zkSync];
const wagmiConfig = defaultWagmiConfig({
  chains,
  projectId,
  metadata: { name: "Web3Modal v3" },
});

// 3. Create modal
createWeb3Modal({ wagmiConfig, projectId, chains, defaultChain: zkSync });

// 4. Create modal
const App = () => {
  const { address } = useAccount();
  return (
    <>
      <div className="container">
        <w3m-button />
        <w3m-network-button />
      </div>
      <p>
        {address && (
          <>
            <b>Address:</b> {address}
          </>
        )}
      </p>
    </>
  );
};

ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById("root") as HTMLElement).render(
  <React.StrictMode>
    <WagmiConfig config={wagmiConfig}>
      <App />
    </WagmiConfig>
  </React.StrictMode>,
);
