Overview

Learn how to build popular use cases or integrate with other technologies.


Playbooks outline various approaches to integrating Tableland into your application stack. There are a number of walkthroughs that touch on how you can use the Studio, SDK, CLI, smart contracts, and APIs, and the intent is to provide short-form content that makes it easy to get started, similar to some of the quickstarts but across a broader set of use cases.

Playbooks index

The following outlines each of the playbooks and what they cover.

Concepts

Concepts are the building blocks of Tableland, and the following outlines the concepts that are available.

Access control

Dive into access control basics for how to use pure SQL for granting or revoking named addresses permissions on a table. Or, learn how to use smart contracts to enable finer access controls.

NFTs

Dynamic NFTs are a common use case for Tableland, and this section describes some of the basics for metadata standards and how to build an NFT.

SQL blueprints

Blueprints are the most common use cases for Tableland. They're the most common use cases for Tableland, and the following outlines the blueprints that are available.

  • ERC721 metadata: Create an ERC721 token with metadata stored in a Tableland table.
  • ERC1155 metadata: Create an ERC1155 token with metadata stored in a Tableland table.
  • Gaming: Build open gaming state, leaderboards, and inventory.
  • Key-value store: Build a key-value store to hold arbitrary data.
  • Web app: Build a web app with a Tableland backend, using the Tableland Studio as an implementation reference.

Frameworks

Frameworks show how developers can use Tableland with existing technologies and easily integrate it into their stack.

  • Hardhat: Use Tableland with Hardhat to build a full stack web3 application.
  • React: Create web apps with React and a Tableland backend.
  • Next.js: Or, create web apps with Next.js and a Tableland backend.
  • wagmi: Easily integrate a wallet connection modal with your web app.

Protocol integrations

As a database with onchain rules, Tableland can easily be used alongside other protocols. There are an endless number of ways protocols can work together, but here are some examples:

  • IPFS & Filecoin: Store files on IPFS, persist them on Filecoin (via web3.storage), and reference the CID in a Tableland table.
  • Lit Protocol: Encrypt and decrypt table data with secure and decentralized key management.
