Nelumbo
Nelumbo is a one-click, development blockchain for Filecoin that you can run on your Mac. Rather than spending time with dependencies, version management, and command-line difficulties, you can launch a development version of the Filecoin Lotus blockchain. This let's you get to the important stuff faster—building.
You can verify the validity of the app by ensuring the hash is Qmd3Y2RkarPyHVrAyoLYfhEi5Amkn7iqUyvXUsEDCTRkpG.
Project Status
Nelumbo is designed to make getting a local Filecoin devnet spun up easily, but it also provides some nice-to-have tools including:
- A simple block explorer
- Wallet creation
- HTTP API documentation around key methods
Should you find any issues with the application, please open issues in this repository. Pull requests are welcome.
Requirements
While Nelumbo tries to abstract away all of the dependency installation requirements, there is one dependency that is required. Users will need to install Homebrew.
Who is behind this project
Justin Hunter (polluterofminds) is building this. He has been working on Filecoin storage client development since the early days of Testnet. This project solves a big problem for him, and it will surely solve a big problem for you if you're building storage client apps.
Nelumbo uses Exceptionless to capture error information to help better support users of the app.
