I wrote a tutorial on how to build a javascript client side Bitcoin wallet, much like blockchain.info's "MyWallet".

It's something I certainly could've used when I first got started

Check it out and let me know what you think.

hey, really nice tutorial. I'm bookmarking this link. do u think use of CarbonWallet code is also a good idea or it has any drawback ? is not it the case that your code will always make a call to helloblock.io and any error return or connection failure from your end may troble the wallet ?

Nice guide, but as we say first come first serve, I don't know what's the use could be to create a wallet because there are major wallets like blockchain.info and none other online wallet would change It probably. But for knowledge and curiosity on how online wallet works It's great tutorial.

Private key shouldn't be, but you have to worry about the authenticity of the JS code thats been run. You have little way of knowing it wasn't tampered with.

Its an interesting tutorial, when will part 2 come out? How risky is using a Javascript wallet over http instead of https?
Is your private key transmitted over the line?

I'd say lots of people are interested in building 'wallet' functionality into their apps. Think of all the tip bots.

I wouldn't trust them with my coins as a wallet, but I'd trust them enough to transact small amounts on there.

That's true I suppose.

It's a great tutorial
But honestly if someone needs to read a tutorial to create a wallet, they shouldn't be running one...
