Welcome to the official guide for developers looking to integrate with Trezor Suite. This portal provides essential resources, APIs, and best practices to build secure cryptocurrency applications. Below, we'll cover key topics step by step.

Introduction to Trezor Suite

Trezor Suite is a comprehensive software platform for managing cryptocurrencies securely. It supports hardware wallets like Trezor Model T and Model One, enabling users to send, receive, and store digital assets safely. For developers, the Suite offers APIs and tools to create custom integrations.

Setting Up Your Development Environment

To get started, ensure you have Node.js installed. Clone the Trezor Suite repository from GitHub and install dependencies using npm. This setup allows you to run the Suite locally for testing.

API Overview

The Trezor Suite API provides endpoints for wallet interactions, transaction signing, and device management. Key methods include connect, getAddress, and signTransaction. Refer to the API documentation for detailed parameters.

Authentication and Security

Security is paramount. Use HTTPS for all communications and implement proper authentication. Trezor devices handle private keys offline, ensuring your integrations remain secure.
