LayerPixel: TON & Telegram Mini Apps directory, official links only

LayerPixel is a small hand-edited directory of wallets, DEXes, explorers, Mini App games, developer tools and learning material around TON and Telegram Mini Apps. Each entry gets a short description written from the project's own site and a link to that official site, nothing else. We have no token, we hold no funds, and we never ask you to sign anything. New picks land in a weekly issue.

A short path to shipping a Mini App that talks to TON. It runs from the Telegram reference to a community SDK, the wallet protocol and a toolchain.

  • Telegram Mini Apps

    The official Telegram documentation for building Mini Apps

    Read this first. It is the source for how a bot launches an app and what the JavaScript API exposes.

    • Telegram
    • Web
  • Telegram Mini Apps SDK

    Community documentation and packages for Mini App developers

    Community packages and docs that wrap the platform. Not run by Telegram, so cross-check anything surprising.

    • Web
  • TON Connect

    The standard protocol that links a dApp to a user's wallet

    How your app links to a user's wallet without ever seeing keys. Includes React and Next.js recipes.

    • Web
  • Tolk

    The recommended smart contract language in the TON docs

    The language the docs now recommend for new contracts, with a migration path from FunC.

    • Docs & code
  • Acton

    One command-line toolchain around Tolk, from setup to verification

    A fresh toolchain around Tolk from project setup to verification. Young and fast moving, so pin your version.

    • Docs & code
  • Blueprint

    An all-in-one tool to write, test and deploy TON contracts

Every entry below was read against the project's own site before it went in. Dead sites, copycats and projects built around reward promises were left out, so a missing name is a decision and not an oversight.
