Start your Node ❗​

Starting a node with Evmos may require various configurations, but the commands are relatively simple:

./evmosd start \ 
    --json-rpc.enable \
    --api.enable \
    --grpc-web.enable \
    --grpc.enable

You can edit your app.toml file to change settings on your node. Within app.toml you can find gas cap, CORS, Pruning, and how to configure a WebSocket Server. For further information, consult the Evmos documentation
