# Build on Arc

> Quickstarts, tutorials, and SDKs for building onchain finance applications on Arc.

Arc gives you a complete developer platform for building financial applications
with stablecoins. Use [App Kits](/app-kit) to add bridging, swapping, and
crosschain token flows to any app, deploy smart contracts on a purpose-built L1
network, or integrate third-party developer tools for RPC access, data indexing,
and compliance.

## Get started

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Connect to Arc" icon="plug" href="/arc/references/connect-to-arc">
    RPC endpoints, chain ID, and network configuration for Arc testnet.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Deploy on Arc" icon="rocket" href="/arc/tutorials/deploy-on-arc">
    Deploy, test, and interact with a Solidity smart contract on Arc.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

<Tip>
  [App Kits](/app-kit) are a suite of SDKs for adding bridging, swapping, token
  transfers, and unified crosschain balances to any app — across EVM chains,
  Solana, and Circle Wallets, not just Arc.
</Tip>

## Network quickstarts

Step-by-step guides for working directly with the Arc network. Most tutorials
require an [Arc testnet RPC connection](/arc/references/connect-to-arc) and a
funded wallet.
