Choosing the right SDK
Understand cheqd's SDK suite and choose the best fit for your project.
Integrate with a cheqd supported SDK
cheqd has integrated into a series of SDKs to enable third parties to create DIDs and resources, issue and verify Verifiable Credentials, using cheqd DIDs, DID Documents and Schemas.
Choose a software stack to suit your needs
cheqd is continually integrating into different software development kits to suit the needs of different partners and their clients.
Below is a comparison between our three initial supported SDKs, Veramo SDK for cheqd, Credo (formerly Aries Framework JavaScript) and Walt.id's SSI Kit.
