Linea, an EVM equivalent, Layer-2 network created by Consensys, is now live. Eager to start developing on Linea? You're at the right place.
Getting Started
To create your own Linea endpoints on Infura, ensure you have an Infura account. Sign up if you haven't already!
You can get endpoints for Linea Testnet, a sandbox environment for developers used for testing and debugging applications where coins hold no real-life value, or Linea Mainnet Alpha, which is the live network used for deployed dapps.
- Log in to your Infura dashboard.
- In your dashboard, you can either create a new Web3 API key or use an existing Web3 API key you've created previously.
- Click your API key.
- Under 'Endpoints,' find Linea.
- Click the drop-down menu, and select "Testnet."
- Copy your endpoint, and you're ready to use this in your dapp, development environment, or whichever Web3 goodness you might be working on! 🚀
