Getting Started

Welcome to Warlot SDK Documentation 🎉
This guide walks you through everything you need to start building with Warlot — from understanding the basics to writing your first storage integration.

1. What is Warlot?

Warlot is a decentralized, pay-as-you-use storage platform built on blockchain technology.
It gives you:

• Transparent pricing → only pay for what you store.
• Security by design → end-to-end encryption & zero-knowledge proofs.
• Scalability → from hobby projects to enterprise-grade storage.
• Real-time tracking → see costs, usage, and alerts in your dashboard.

Whether you’re a developer, business, or everyday user, Warlot adapts to your needs.

2. Core Concepts

Before coding, here are the key terms:

• Bucket → A storage container where your files (“blobs”) live.
• Blob → A single file stored inside a bucket.
• Renewals → Files expire after a certain duration; renewals keep them active.
• Wallet → Linked crypto wallet that pays for storage automatically.
• Alerts → Notifications for balance, usage, or expiration events.

3. SDK Overview

Warlot provides SDKs for multiple languages:

• TypeScript SDK — ideal for web apps, Node.js, and serverless.
• Go SDK — great for backend services and CLI tools.
