Installation

Install Ox via your package manager, a <script> tag, or build from source.

Package Manager

Install the required packages.

pnpm
pnpm install ox

CDN

If you're not using a package manager, you can also use Viem via an ESM-compatible CDN such as esm.sh. Simply add a <script type="module"> tag to the bottom of your HTML file with the following content.

<script type="module">
  import { Abi } from 'https://esm.sh/ox'
</script>

Using Unreleased Commits

If you can't wait for a new release to test the latest features, you can either install from the canary tag (tracks the main branch).

pnpm
pnpm add ox@canary

Or clone the Ox repo to your local machine, build, and link it yourself.

gh repo clone wevm/ox
cd ox
pnpm install
pnpm build
pnpm link --global

Then go to the project where you are using Ox and run pnpm link --global ox (or the package manager that you used to link Ox globally).
