{% hint style="info" %}
Wraps around [ethers.js](https://github.com/ethers-io/ethers.js). Works in the **web browser** and [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/).
{% endhint %}

## Getting started

You can install the API using \`npm\` package manager using:

```bash
sandbox_folder$> npm install @mangrovedao/mangrove.js
```

and you may readily connect to Mangrove with [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/), for instance:

{% code title="demo.node.terminal" %}

```bash
sandbox_folder$> node
Welcome to Node.js v_xxx
Type ".help" for more information.
> const { Mangrove } = require("@mangrovedao/mangrove.js");
> const { ethers } = require("ethers");
> let provider = new ethers.providers.WebSocketProvider(
    "https://polygon-mumbai.g.alchemy.com/v2/<PRIVATE_KEY>"
  );
> let myWallet = new ethers.Wallet(
    "<WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY>",
    provider
  );
> let mgvAPI = await Mangrove.connect({
    signer: myWallet
  });
> let market = await mgvAPI.market({base:"WETH", quote:"DAI"});
> console.log("pretty prints available bids from the WETH,DAI market on Mangove");
// pretty prints available bids from the WETH,DAI market on Mangove
> await market.consoleBids();
