πŸ”ŽAgoric Swingset Contract Explorer

Join the community of open-source builders at Agoric!

Description

A publicly accessible Agoric chain explorer which exposes detail at the Agoric VM level, in particular:

  • Basic Transactions. Cosmos side + Swingset transactions (contract calls)

  • Contract viewer including interacting with the contract

  • List contract facets

  • List assets including ERTP assets

  • All Swingset based queries

Context

The Agoric chain is supported by several Cosmos-level block explorers. However, these do not do a good job of providing detail on activity that occurs inside the Agoric VM (aka Swingset). This bounty is to provide an explorer that would detail Agoric VM activity. Note: if you need assistance with thinking through the design of this bounty, resources will be provided.

Acceptance Criteria

Bounty acceptance will be based on:

  • Functionality in description is provided

  • Plan reviewed with Agoric team

  • Demo of functionality in page that could be deployed as a webapp

  • Be thoroughly documented, including clear instructions on how to use it, its dependencies, and any configuration options.

  • Include a short video demonstrating basic usage scenarios

Time Estimation

3 weeks(120 hours)

Reward

$9600

Payment will be made in USD (fiat currency) via wire transfer. The developer is responsible for providing their completed tax documents (W9 for US based developers and/or W8 or W8-BEN-E for non-US based developers) and providing their banking details in order to receive payment.

Applicant Assessment Criteria

Important: Please provide a clear work plan for how you will approach this bounty. Use the work plan as an initial demonstration that you would be a good candidate. Bounties will require coordination with the Agoric team, so unfortunately only plans submitted in English will be considered.

* Issue-specific domain experience

* Issue-specific technical capability

* Familiarity with Agoric's platform

* JavaScript experience

* Availability and communication

Experience Write-up (1000-1500 words)

  • Begin with a compelling, relevant introductory hook statement (<50 words).

  • Clearly explain the specific bounty project (~100 words).

  • Describe how the developer approached the problem (~300 words).

  • Give a step-by-step description of the solution (>500 words && <1000 words).

  • At least three code snippets per write-up. They do not count toward overall word count.

This is important feedback for us as we evolve the platform.
