Integrating developer workflows with a modern Web3 wallet — presentation & demo-ready HTML
Prepared for: Developers & Product Teams
Version: 1.0
This presentation explains how GitKraken.dev — the developer-facing resources around GitKraken tools — can pair with the Exodus Web3 Wallet to enable secure, intuitive web3 development workflows. We'll cover architecture, developer experience, integration strategies, security considerations, and a short demo plan you can follow to prototype quickly.
GitKraken.dev is the developer hub that documents the GitKraken product suite, including the Git GUI, GitKraken CLI, Git integrations, and APIs that help teams streamline version control and automation. While GitKraken is known for its desktop GUI and cloud services, the developer portal emphasizes integrations, automation, and best practices for teams building developer tooling.
Exodus is a non-custodial wallet that supports multiple blockchains and tokens, with an emphasis on user-friendly UX. The Exodus Web3 Wallet exposes wallet connectivity for web applications via standard connectors (such as WalletConnect or browser extension APIs) and supports transaction signing, account management, and token viewing. Developers building dApps or developer tools can use Exodus to enable secure transaction signing and identity verification.
Bringing Git tooling together with a Web3 wallet unlocks modern developer workflows for blockchain-native projects. Examples include:
Integrating these two ecosystems reduces friction, improves security posture for releasing smart contracts, and provides a single developer narrative for teams that ship both traditional software and blockchain components.
Use Exodus wallet accounts as cryptographic identities for signing Git objects, release manifests, or commit tags. Rather than storing private keys in CI agents, redirect signing operations to the user's wallet using a browser-based flow or a secure remote signing service that requires wallet approval.
CI pipelines can prepare contract bytecode and then request a human approval via Exodus to finalize the transaction. This keeps private keys off the CI runner and introduces an explicit manual approval step implemented through WalletConnect or a webhook that notifies a developer who signs from their wallet.
Embed Web3 views into GitKraken.dev pages or GitOps dashboards, letting developers see testnet tx status, contract addresses, and link from commits to on-chain artifacts.
Any integration must balance convenience and security. Critical considerations:
Use this checklist to get started quickly:
// Frontend (simplified)
const provider = await connectWallet(); // WalletConnect or extension
const payload = createReleasePayload(commitHash, metadata);
const signature = await provider.request({
method: 'personal_sign',
params: [payload, userAddress]
});
// send signature to backend for verification
await api.post('/signed-release', { payload, signature });
// Server-side pseudocode
const signer = recoverSigner(payload, signature);
if (signer.toLowerCase() !== expectedAddress.toLowerCase()) {
throw new Error('Invalid signer');
}
processRelease(payload);
A: Yes — use the wallet to approve one step in a multi-sig flow or integrate with on-chain multi-sig contracts that require multiple wallet approvals.
Exodus supports many popular chains; always confirm supported networks for your target deployment and test on testnets first.
The following official pages are useful while building and testing integrations. Colors are styled for presentation clarity.
Keep all interactive flows keyboard-accessible and provide clear modal confirmations for signing operations. Wherever possible, surface the transaction summary and explain parameters in human-readable language before the user signs. Provide fallbacks if a user declines signing — e.g., allow a staged deployment to a test environment.
