What problem does it solve?

This skill consolidates Metaplex protocols and tooling into a single, practical developer guide for Solana NFTs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Core NFT development with MPL Core and Token Metadata
  • Bubblegum compressed NFTs for large collections and efficient storage
  • Candy Machine launches and Genesis token launches with MPL-Hybrid tooling
  • End-to-end samples covering creation, transfer, and collection management

Quick Start

Install the required Metaplex SDKs and run the provided examples under examples/ to mint Core NFTs, compressed NFTs, and launch Candy Machines. For quick experimentation, start with examples/core/create-nft.ts and examples/token-metadata/create-nft.ts, then explore bubblegum and genesis workflows.

FAQPage Schema
How do I mint compressed NFTs on Solana using Bubblegum for large collections?▼

To mint compressed NFTs on Solana, use the Bubblegum protocol integrated with Umi to enable efficient storage for large collections. This skill provides hands-on examples and ready-to-run code for Bubblegum compression workflows.

What is the difference between Solana Core NFTs and Token Metadata?▼

Solana Core NFTs utilize the MPL Core protocol for asset creation, while Token Metadata attaches standard metadata to existing SPL tokens. This guide covers both approaches with end-to-end samples for creation, transfer, and collection management.

How do I set up a Candy Machine launch on Solana?▼

Set up a Candy Machine launch on Solana by installing the required Metaplex SDKs and running the provided examples. This skill provides integration patterns and ready-to-run code for building and debugging Candy Machine workflows.

Does this Metaplex guide support Genesis token launches?▼

Yes, this Metaplex guide fully supports Genesis token launches using MPL-Hybrid tooling. It provides practical developer pipelines and hands-on examples to execute and debug Genesis workflows on the Solana blockchain.

What do I need to start building Solana NFT workflows with Umi?▼

To start building Solana NFT workflows with Umi, you need the @metaplex-foundation/umi-bundle-defaults and related Metaplex SDKs. Quick experimentation begins by running provided examples like creating Core NFTs and Token Metadata.

When should I use Bubblegum compression instead of standard Solana Core NFTs?▼

Use Bubblegum compression instead of standard Solana Core NFTs when managing large collections that require efficient on-chain storage. Bubblegum compresses asset data, whereas Core NFTs are better suited for standard creation and transfer pipelines.
