How to make web wallet service?

[wsxdrfv]

So there are many web-wallet services providing sites.

How they program it?

Are there bitcoin's opened API to generate wallet and address to receive coin?


How about other alt-coin's cases?

If that coin is based on bitcoin sources and copied, then they also automatically provide API?

More specific, the part "Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs)"... There are also other options, like running bitcore: https://bitcore.io/guides/wallet-service/
This being said: i never recommand anybody to start using a web wallet, starting a wallet service as a novice user without any trust is a bad idear (IMHO)

Thx.
If I maintain most bitcoin source as-is, other developer can make my coin's wallet with using that bitcore API?

developers must have a background on Blockchain, cryptocurrency and Basic knowledge of dealing with sites and their creation.
html/css - javascript [node.js] - [python/php] - [SQL] - Security team.

for cold wallets.

How about other alt-coin's cases?

You mean support more than a coin?
All of these currencies are the protocols of Blockchain's, success in designing a wallet for the Bitcoin means the possibility of adding any other number of coins.

If that coin is based on bitcoin sources and copied, then they also automatically provide API?

Same above

If you clone bitcoin, your developer *should* be able to clone bitcore, changing the same parameters that were changed when cloning bitcoin...

I success cloning litecoin v0.8, but it is 4 years ago version.
Now I want to clone newest bitcoin source, 0.15.1.
But when I see it, source code position/structure changed a lot.
For example, base58.h 's "PUBKEY_ADDRESS = 35"  is changed to chainparams.cpp 's   "base58Prefixes[PUBKEY_ADDRESS] = std::vector<unsigned char>(1,111);

What this means and how to change key address's prefix?
