Creating a Solana token sounds simple until you actually try it.
You read the docs, install half the internet, argue with Rust versions, get lost in SPL token flags, and somehow still end up wondering if you’ve accidentally given mint authority to the void.
I kept seeing the same questions pop up in Solana and Web3 dev spaces:
How do I mint a Solana token quickly?
Do I need to write Rust for this?
How do I handle metadata properly?
How do I avoid messing up supply or authority?
So I built a small tool that does one thing well: lets you create a Solana token cleanly, without touching Rust or CLI tooling.
The flow is simple:
Connect your wallet
Set name, symbol, supply and decimals
Add metadata if you want it
Mint the token
No test scripts. No local builds. No copy-pasting commands you don’t fully trust.
Under the hood it still follows standard Solana token behaviour. Mint authority, freeze authority, metadata and supply are explicit and visible so nothing sneaky happens.
I originally built it for my own launches, but a few other devs started using it too, mainly for quick experiments, MVPs and early-stage projects.

This isn’t a replacement for writing custom Solana programs, and it’s not meant to be. It’s just a faster way to get from idea to token when infrastructure is not the interesting part of the problem.
If you’re already deep in Solana development, I’d be genuinely interested to hear how you handle token creation in your own workflow.
