# Solana CLI & Solana Keypair

To begin developing on the Eclipse blockchain, you need to configure the Solana CLI to connect to the Eclipse devnet. This environment is ideal for testing and development purposes, offering a similar experience to the mainnet without the need for real cryptocurrency. This section will walk you through configuring the Solana CLI and setting up a Solana Keypair.
