The Polygon RPC documentation provides developers with the necessary tools to interact with the Polygon blockchain, a Layer 2 scaling solution built on Ethereum. The documentation includes API endpoints for querying blockchain data, managing transactions, and deploying smart contracts. Polygon uses sidechains and rollups to achieve fast and low-cost transactions, making it ideal for decentralized finance (DeFi), gaming, and NFTs. Developers can leverage Ethereum-compatible tools while benefiting from enhanced scalability using Polygon’s RPC gateway.
