Description
Prism is a stateless payments library that connects your app to multiple payment processors. You can integrate once and point to any payment processor; add fallbacks for redundancy, switch processors based on routing rules - all by swapping a few lines of code. No sign-up needed. No infra setup needed. Actively maintained within the Juspay Hyperswitch production environment. Apache-2.0 licensed, polyglot ready, with SDKs for Node, Python, Java and Rust.

Could you build this?
Partial While an SDK wrapper can be vibe coded, standardizing the dynamic lifecycle states, webhook reconciliation, and PCI-DSS compliance nuances across multiple payment gateway APIs is an intricate systems challenge.
What it would actually take: A proper payment switching library requires a multi-connector architecture (TypeScript/Rust/Go) mapping unified intents onto Stripe, Adyen, PayPal, and others with uniform error parsing and payload serialization. The hard part is building robust fallback and idempotency guarantees, unified 3D-Secure handling, and edge routing without violating payment token isolation. It requires deep domain expertise in fintech payments architectures and gateway protocols.
