To make these instructions concrete, we have created a sample cross-app wallet called Rapidfire ID. To interact with it, you can find its SDK in the NPM package directory: @rapidfire/id.

You can check out the GitHub repository for Rapidfire Wallet to learn how to create your own wallet.

import RapidfireID from '@rapidfire/id'
const rapidfire = new RapidfireID()
const provider = rapidfire.getEthereumProvider()
const signature = await provider.request({ 
  method: 'personal_sign', 
  params: [ 
    '0xcafebabe', 
    '0xdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeef', 
  ], 
})
