WAO SDK streamlines Arweave/AO development with elegant syntax enhancements and seamless message piping for enjoyable coding experiences. GraphQL operations are also made super easy.

Additionally, it includes a drop-in replacement for aoconnect, allowing the testing of lua scripts 1000x faster than the mainnet by emulating AO units in memory. It's even 100x faster than testing with arlocal and ao-localnet.

WAO is not only for in-memory testing, but also for lightweight standanoe AO units and web embeddable AO units. You can type a simple command npx wao, and you will have your own AO units on your local computer.

You can open up a browser at preview.wao.eco and you will have all the AO units (MU/SU/CU/Gateway) right in your browser with an AOS terminal, a coding editor, and a local AO explorer to make debugging easier.

WAO is also compatible with HyperBEAM and Mainnet AOS processes. You can launch a HyperBEAM node from withing JS test code and create a sandbox environment for the test.
