The `mixnet` component currently exposes the logic of two clients: the websocket client, and the socks client.
The `coconut` component is currently being worked on. Right now it exposes logic allowing for the creation of coconut credentials on the Sandbox testnet.
## Websocket client examples

## Socks client example
There is also the option to embed the [`socks5-client`](../clients/socks5-client.md) into your app code (`examples/socks5.rs`):
```rust,noplayground
{{#include ../../../../sdk/rust/nym-sdk/examples/socks5.rs}}

## Coconut credential generation
The following code shows how you can use the SDK to create and use a [credential](../bandwidth-credentials.md) representing paid bandwidth on the Sandbox testnet.
```rust,noplayground
{{#include ../../../../sdk/rust/nym-sdk/examples/bandwidth.rs}}
```
You can read more about Coconut credentials (also referred to as `zk-Nym`) [here](../cococnut.md).
