Horizon |
Horizon is the server for the client facing API for the Stellar ecosystem. It acts as the interface between stellar-core and applications that want to access the Stellar network. It allows you to submit transactions to the network, check the status of accounts, subscribe to event streams, etc. See an overview of the Stellar ecosystem for more details.
You can interact directly with horizon via curl or a web browser but SDF provides a JavaScript SDK for clients to use to interact with Horizon.
SDF runs a instance of Horizon that is connected to the test net https://horizon-testnet.stellar.org/.
Community maintained libraries (in various states of completeness) for interacting with Horizon in other languages:
