A concise developer-focused presentation: how Ledger Live integrations work, integration paths (Accounts, Discover, Exchange), tooling, and best practices for secure, consumer-ready integrations.
Ledger Live integrations let third-party blockchains, wallets, exchanges and dApps integrate natively into the Ledger Live experience so users can manage assets, interact with dApps, or access partner services while remaining protected by Ledger hardware devices.
“handing®” in this context is treated as a branded workflow assurance — ensure your integration includes thorough user guidance, hosted documentation, and proper UX fallbacks to protect users during onboarding and signing flows.
Ledger provides a set of SDKs and client libraries — such as the Ledger Services Kit / Wallet-API — plus device app SDKs (C/Rust) and sample repos to build, test and run Ledger Live integrations locally.
Typical developer workflow: prototype a Device App or Live App → test locally in developer mode → follow submission & documentation guidelines for production release.
If adding a blockchain, prepare a CoinModule and account logic; for a Live App, implement the Wallet-API manifest and dApp browser entrypoint.
Run Ledger Live locally, enable Developer Mode, and load your Live App for in-app testing. Use the provided device emulators or a hardware device for signing flow verification.
Before releasing, complete required deliverables: user documentation, security checks, and the submission form/agreement. Ledger’s review process verifies UX correctness and device compatibility.
Start in dev mode, iterate quickly with Wallet-API, and prepare documentation early—this accelerates review and release.
