# Developer Sandbox

### **Build and test bitcoin payments in minutes.** 

**Alby Sandbox offers:**

* zero-setup test wallets
* different payment scenarios
* ready-to-use code examples
* one-shot prompts for agents

**Here's the developer workflow we've enabled:**

1. Create test wallets programmatically with the faucet API
2. Build your payment logic (Alby Agent Skill is all you need)
3. Run full end-to-end tests with real payment flows
4. When ready, swap in your production NWC connection available in your [Alby Hub](https://getalby.com/alby-hub) wallet.

**Get started:**  <https://sandbox.albylabs.com/>

### The New Bitcoin Payment Developer Stack

We've built three tools that work together to eliminate friction from implementing bitcoin payment flows:

[**NWC Faucet**](https://faucet.nwc.dev/) — Create a test wallet with a single HTTP request. No signup. No infrastructure. Just a working wallet with 10,000 sats.

[**Alby Agent Skill**](https://github.com/getAlby/alby-agent-skill) — An AI assistant that knows how to build bitcoin apps. It understands Nostr Wallet Connect, lightning addresses, invoices, subscriptions, hold invoices, and more.

[**Alby Sandbox**](https://sandbox.albylabs.com/) — A visual playground to see bitcoin lightning payments in action across multiple wallets.

All tools are combined in  <https://sandbox.albylabs.com/>. Give it a try.&#x20;

Once you are ready to go live, swap in your production NWC connection available in your [Alby Hub](https://getalby.com/alby-hub) wallet. 🚀
