This document describes how to use the Pendulum Playground, a simple user interface to interact with the Pendulum prototype.

Connect Account

The first time you access the Playground, you will see the screen below, meaning that no account is connected yet.

To connect an account, there are two options:

  1. Connect an existing Stellar account
  2. Create an account with some testnet tokens in one click.

Option 1. Connect an existing Stellar account

If you click on the “CONNECT ACCOUNT” button, a dialog pops up.

You need to provide a name for the account, and your stellar secret key (a string that starts with an "S"). After that, clicking on “Connect account” will save this key in the local storage and connect to the Pendulum address of that account.

You can reveal your password to copy it for later use via the icon on the right side of the secret key input.

After connecting, the balances page will be updated, reflecting your balances on Pendulum.

Option 2. One click account setup

The other way you can connect your account is meant for users that do not have a Stellar testnet account, and especially those who do not have our testnet EUR or USDC tokens to play around with the provided AMM. For this wide use case, a special feature was developed called One-click setup. To use it open the account dialog by clicking on “Connect Account” and then on the button “One-click setup”. This will start a sequence of events:
