The deso-protocol library will handle signing and submitting transactions for confirmation for you. All you need to do is construct them by providing the raw data.
import { submitPost } from 'deso-protocol';
const txInfo = await submitPost({
UpdaterPublicKeyBase58Check: currentUser.publicKey,
BodyObj: {
Body: 'My first post on DeSo!',
ImageURLs: [],
VideoURLs: [],
},
});
