[chainlist request] Localhost RPC for dev, testing and demonstrations

[radeksvarz]

Rabby Wallet lacks a localhost:8545 RPC option in its chainlist, hindering local development using tools like Anvil, Truffle, and Hardhat. This omission prevents devs from seamlessly connecting to their locally hosted blockchain networks for testing and debugging purposes.

This is related to #1274 , but can be designed differently UI/UX wise (think Android developer mode)

[radeksvarz]

Custom RPC is possible to be set.

However only for mainnets (not testnets) and thus requiring corresponding chain ID of the mainnet:

This seam to work at first when starting anvil with anvil --chain-id 1

However the balance on the accounts is not reflected.

I second this, it would be much easier to test contract development locally with Foundry/Anvil and Rabby rather than switching to Metamask only because of this feature. Please add custom rpc and chain.

bumping this, really need Rabby to supports custom RPC to connect to the local Anvil node

The team is deaf to hearing us to add custom rpc / chains.

adoption is also driven also by the developer community... and developers need hardhat or other tools to connect to.

You can add custom testnet in Rabby now, so the issue will be closed

bump++++ I really want to ditch Metamask!

@vvvvvv1vvvvvv Thanks!

I can confirm it works.
