# Connect MetaMask to XRP Ledger Sidechain
MetaMask is an extension for accessing Harmony-enabled distributed applications (_dapps_) from your browser. The extension injects the XRP Ledger EVM sidechain Web3 API into every website's Javascript context, so that Web3 applications can read from the blockchain.
This tutorial walks through the process of installing MetaMask, configuring it on the XRP Ledger EVM sidechain network, and importing an existing account using a previously generated private key.
## 1. Installing MetaMask
Install the MetaMask extension on your browser from **[https://metamask.io/download/](https://metamask.io/download/)**. The extension supports most desktop browsers.
## 2. Create an Account on MetaMask
To create a new account on MetaMask:
1. Click the MetaMask icon.
