go-hyperliquid
go-hyperliquid is a community-developed Golang SDK for the Hyperliquid API, providing idiomatic Go bindings for trading, market data, and account management on Hyperliquid. Built with Go's concurrency model in mind, the SDK leverages goroutines and channels for efficient WebSocket streaming and concurrent order management—making it well-suited for high-throughput trading systems written in Go. The library covers the full Hyperliquid API including REST endpoints for order placement, account queries, and historical data, as well as WebSocket subscriptions for real-time order book updates and trade feeds. With typed request and response structures, comprehensive error handling, and context-aware API calls, go-hyperliquid provides the idiomatic Go developer experience that the Hyperliquid ecosystem previously lacked, enabling the large Go trading infrastructure community to build on Hyperliquid. The SDK has active contributors and is maintained alongside the official Python and Rust SDKs.

HyperIndex is a dedicated data infrastructure layer for the Hyperliquid blockchain, providing comprehensive indexing, querying, and API services tailored to the ecosystem's unique architecture. As Hyperliquid operates its own high-performance L1, developers and analysts face challenges accessing historical on-chain data, user activity, and protocol metrics in real time. HyperIndex solves this by maintaining indexed archives of Hyperliquid's order book events, trade history, liquidations, vault activity, and HyperEVM transactions — exposing this data through clean REST and WebSocket APIs. Whether you're building a portfolio tracker, analytics dashboard, trading bot, or DeFi protocol, HyperIndex provides the data backbone that makes it possible. The service supports complex queries — filtering trades by asset, user, or time window — without requiring developers to run their own archive nodes. By abstracting the complexity of raw blockchain data, HyperIndex accelerates ecosystem development and lowers the barrier to building on Hyperliquid. It functions as the ecosystem's equivalent of The Graph or Dune Analytics, purpose-built for Hyperliquid's specific data model and performance characteristics.

Ecosystem Integration
go-hyperliquid
go-hyperliquid operates on Multi-Layer (spans multiple hyperliquid layers). Spanning multiple layers lets it combine the strengths of each, though integration complexity is higher.
HyperIndex
HyperIndex operates on Multi-Layer (spans multiple hyperliquid layers). Spanning multiple layers lets it combine the strengths of each, though integration complexity is higher.
Both protocols share the same layer, maximizing composability potential.
