Ignite CLI is a Go-based command-line tool for scaffolding, building, launching, and maintaining sovereign Proof of Stake blockchains built on the Cosmos SDK. It generates boilerplate chain code, provides a hot-reloading local development server, and includes modules for tokens, governance, and inter-blockchain communication.

Use cases

  • scaffold a new cosmos sdk blockchain
  • build a proof of stake blockchain in go
  • run a local blockchain dev environment with hot reload
  • launch a sovereign appchain
  • generate boilerplate code for a cosmos chain
  • create tokens and ibc modules for my blockchain

When to choose

  • you are building a Cosmos SDK-based blockchain or appchain
  • you want scaffolding and a local dev server for chain development
  • you need IBC, token, and governance modules out of the box

When to avoid

  • you are building smart contracts on an existing chain like Ethereum or Solana
  • you need a general-purpose blockchain explorer or wallet
  • your project does not use the Cosmos SDK stack
