Abstract Provider
This sub-module is part of the ethers project.
It is responsible for defining the common interface for a Provider, which in ethers differs quite substantially from Web3.js.
A Provider is an abstraction of non-account-based operations on a blockchain and is generally not directly involved in signing transaction or data.
For signing, see the Abstract Signer or Wallet sub-modules.
For more information, see the documentation.
Importing
Most users will prefer to use the umbrella package, but for those with more specific needs, individual components can be imported.
