# Stacks libraries

Call Leather methods from a Stacks app with @stacks/connect

[`@stacks/connect`](https://github.com/stx-labs/connect/tree/main/packages/connect) calls Leather through the same RPC methods these pages document. Its `request` function sends a method name and its parameters to the wallet the user selects. Checked against `@stacks/connect` 8.2.7.

```typescript
import { request } from "@stacks/connect";

const response = await request("stx_getAddresses");
```

The library's [README](https://github.com/stx-labs/connect/tree/main/packages/connect#readme) lists the methods it types and shows how to connect a wallet.

## Legacy libraries

Leather rejects the legacy `StacksProvider` methods, such as `authenticationRequest` and `transactionRequest`. The error asks the app to use `LeatherProvider.request()` instead. Libraries built on those methods do not work with Leather. micro-stacks 1.2.1, its last release, is one of them.
