Elliott Voris from the Stellar Development Foundation presents the regional starter pack, a toolkit for developers building on Stellar in Mexico. The pack includes anchor integration resources, a working demo, and TypeScript libraries that simplify on/off-ramp functionality with partners like Etherfuse, BlindPay, and AlphaPay.
Elliott Voris, senior developer advocate at the Stellar Development Foundation, introduces the regional starter pack designed to help hackathon participants in Mexico City build real-world applications. The toolkit provides three key components: a resource guide for finding anchors and their services, a working demo application showing integration flows, and reusable TypeScript libraries that abstract away differences between anchor APIs. Etherfuse representatives explain their offering of yield-bearing tokenized government bonds (CETES) integrated with SPEI payment rails, featuring low 20 basis point fees. The presentation walks through a live on-ramp demo using Etherfuse, showing KYC verification, bank account setup, and token receipt. The starter pack normalizes interactions across anchors that may not be fully SEP-compliant, enabling developers to quickly test and integrate anchor services without deep protocol knowledge.
