Connect wallet

Solana is not evm-compatible and therefore MetaMask cannot currently be configured to work with Solana.

Solana does support several types of wallets via usage of the the Solana native command-line app as well as wallets from third-parties.

For developers, command-line wallets are recommended as new features on the Solana blockchain are supported on the command line first before being integrated into third-party solutions.

Integrate CLI

Solana uses it's own command-line tools to interact with a Solana cluster.

Solana provides easy to follow guidance in their documentation on how to install and use Solana Command Line (CLI) tools.
