# Jin Developer Documentation

**Welcome! At Jin Labs we are building a Layer 1 for everyone. This documentation will help you develop applications for the Jin Network run nodes, and be a part of the blossoming Jin community. This documentation covers both basic and advanced topics. Here you will find concepts, how-to guides, quickstarts, tutorials, API references, code examples, release notes, and more.**

### Set up the Aptos environment and start with the tutorials <a href="#set-up-the-aptos-environment-and-start-with-the-tutorials" id="set-up-the-aptos-environment-and-start-with-the-tutorials"></a>

### Run Aptos nodes <a href="#run-aptos-nodes" id="run-aptos-nodes"></a>

### Ask questions and offer answers[​](https://aptos.dev/#ask-questions-and-offer-answers) <a href="#ask-questions-and-offer-answers" id="ask-questions-and-offer-answers"></a>

Join [**Jin Network** **Discord**](https://discord.gg/BDMwGDgY2e) to speak with developers and hop into the Jin community. It's the best way to keep up to date with news and developments in the Jin universe. Be sure to check pinned messages in the channels - this is where we like to keep topic-specific links, events, and more.

Or even if you just want to stop by to say "Have a nice day!". There's a little something for everyone!

BE SAFE OUT THERE

It's dangerous to go alone. Please remember, community managers will never message or DM you first, and they will never ask you to send them money or share any sensitive, private, or personal information. If this happens to you, please report it to us in [**Jin Network** **Discord**](https://discord.gg/BDMwGDgY2e), or by sending an email to **<jinnetwork.team@gmail.com>**

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://jin-network.gitbook.io/jin-network/jin-developer-documentation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
