Tools FAQ
Do the x402 Academy tools send data to a server?
No. The tools use static pages and client-side JavaScript. Inputs stay in the browser and there is no signup, backend, wallet connection, or submitted payment data.
Are these reference tools?
No. These tools are teaching tools. Use x402docs.com and the official x402 docs for field-level reference, SDK signatures, and production details.
Which tool should I start with?
Start with the flow simulator if the protocol is new, then use the quickstart configurator for a stack-specific starter, and finish with the scheme quiz.
