$ npm install blockstack
You can import blockstack.js as a script without using a package manager.
To securely use the latest distribution of blockstack.js from a CDN, use the following script in your application:
`html`
_Note: this is script is bundled as standalone (UMD) lib, targeting ES6 (ECMAScript 2015)._
Blockstack JS is a library for profiles/identity, authentication, and storage.
The authentication portion of this library can be used to:
1. create an authentication request
2. create an authentication response
The profiles/identity portion of this library can be used to:
1. transform a JSON profile into cryptographically-signed tokens
2. recover a JSON profile from signed tokens
3. validate signed profile tokens
The storage portion of this library can be used to:
1. store and retrieve your app's data in storage that is controlled by the user
_Note:_ this lib is written in Typescript and is compiled to ES6 (ECMAScript 2015)
syntax and uses CommonJS modules. The NPM package works out of the box within the
Node.js runtime, and within browsers when using a common bundler (e.g. Webpack,
Browserify, Rollup, etc).
_Note:_ blockstack.js 0.14.0 and newer versions use a new on-disk format that is not backward compatible with prior versions.
