# Clients

We publish typed client packages that wrap the `barkd` REST API, so you can call it from typed code without writing raw HTTP. The packages are generated from the [OpenAPI spec](/barkd/api-reference/wallet/create-a-wallet) and live in the [barkd-clients repository](https://gitlab.com/ark-bitcoin/barkd-clients).
