Requires a Binance account with API key and secret to place real or testnet trades.
This project is a Node.js library, written in TypeScript, that lets developers connect their own applications to the Binance cryptocurrency exchange. Binance is one of the largest platforms for buying, selling, and trading crypto, and it exposes a set of APIs for placing trades and pulling market data programmatically. This library wraps those APIs so a developer does not have to build the raw HTTP and WebSocket handling from scratch. It covers spot trading, margin trading, futures, and delivery contracts, and it aims for full coverage of Binance's REST and WebSocket APIs, including live price streams and market depth data. It supports both the newer ESM and older CommonJS JavaScript module styles, so it works with modern and legacy Node.js projects alike. Other included features are demo and testnet trading modes for testing strategies without risking real money, automatic reconnection if a WebSocket connection drops, proxy support, customizable HTTP headers, and the ability to call any Binance endpoint even if it is not yet wrapped by a dedicated method in the library. Getting started involves installing the package with npm, then creating a client instance with an API key and secret from a Binance account. From there, a developer can call methods like getting futures prices, checking account balances, or placing limit and market buy and sell orders, all through async and await syntax. The examples in the README show placing single orders as well as submitting multiple futures orders in one call. This tool is meant for developers who already understand trading concepts like limit orders, market orders, and futures contracts, and who want to automate trading or build tools such as bots or dashboards on top of Binance. It is not a beginner-friendly interface for someone unfamiliar with cryptocurrency trading. The full README is longer than what was shown.
