No additional `@types/*` package is needed. ```typescript import type { PaymentIntent } from '@zenxdigitalholdings/zenpays' import { ZenPays } from '@zenxdigitalholdings/zenpays' const zenpays = new ZenPays({ apiKey: process.env.ZENPAYS_API_KEY!, }) // Full type safety const intent: PaymentIntent = await zenpays.payments.getPaymentIntent('pi_xxx') ``` The Python SDK includes full type hints and works seamlessly with mypy and other type checkers. ```python from zenpays import ZenPays from zenpays.types.payment import PaymentIntent import os zenpays = ZenPays(api_key=os.environ["ZENPAYS_API_KEY"]) # Full type hints support intent: PaymentIntent = zenpays.payments.get_payment_intent("pi_xxx") ``` ## Browser Support The SDK works in both Node.js and browser environments. For browser usage, you can import directly: ```html ``` :::warning Never expose your secret API key in client-side code. Use publishable keys for browser environments. ::: The Python SDK is designed for server-side use and is not compatible with browser environments. :::tip Use the JavaScript SDK for browser-based integrations and the Python SDK for server-side operations. ::: ## Next Steps - [Quick Start](/docs/getting-started/quick-start) - Create your first payment - [Configuration](/docs/getting-started/configuration) - Learn about SDK options - [Authentication](/docs/getting-started/authentication) - Manage API keys
