Hi, welcome to the HackaTron!
When can we expect a demo video? Curious to see how it looks and how to use it.

[Nweke-nature1.com]

Welcome to Grand Hackathon Season 5, please how secured is your platform when connecting dapps, my concern is how rigid the the security is measured,

As your project name is ExporeX , are you affiliated to X/Twitter? Any reason or secret behind the name of your project?

[HODL]

Welcome to HackaTRONs5 ! It looks like your project is trying to solve the issue on dapps where users are redirected to other on chain explorers like tronscan. This is indeed a very annoying situation from user perspective. Looking forward to see ExploreX come to live. Good luck !

[Prince-Onscolo]

Welcome to S5.

Will need a demo to see hoe it works. We have a project this Season wh is working to simplify explorers and you are working on widget. Both have almost the same goal. To simplify explorers, which is very good. all the best

[Sakhi]

Thank you for your warm welcome to HackaTron. I’m excited to share that I’m currently working on it and aiming for a swift release. I’ll be sure to keep you updated on our progress.

In the meantime, feel free to ask any questions, and I’ll be happy to provide answers.

[fabsltsa]

Sure
Is it your first participation in a hackathon?
Have you developed your widget previously on other blockchains?
Is it a free-to-use tool? Is it meant to later generate revenue and, if yes, how?

Thanks again

[Tyche]

Interesting project! Waiting to try it out soon…

Have been tired of the explorers lately

Welcome to Season 5 Hackathon, kinda complex what y’all got going on but from my read and understanding, I see y’all plan to incorporate the ExploreX library into any DApp, ensuring compatibility with popular frameworks like React js, Typescript, Next js, and Vue js. The implementation process will follow specific milestones, including library setup and testing, backend development, frontend widget creation, ExploreX widget integration, and widget functionality testing.

To further wrap my head around what y’all got going on, are there any specific features or capabilities of ExploreX that are crucial for DApp’s success, or any considerations regarding security or performance during integration and implementation?

[Sakhi]

We appreciate your warm welcome and thank you for your questions.

It’s important to note that we do not employ any databases to store user data. Our primary goal is to offer a seamless and user-friendly experience for analysing and accessing transaction details within the Dapp. Rest assured, there will be no concerns regarding the security of user data or their assets.

We’re not affiliated with X/Twitter. The X stands for multi-platform compatibility. As we grow, we’d want ExploreX to be compatible with as many Dapps as possible and also include more blockchains over time.

[Sakhi]

We’re really thankful for your support! We’re super excited to be working on ExploreX, a project that aims to fix a common annoyance in decentralised apps (Dapps).

When you use some Dapps and make a transaction, they don’t give you a direct link to see what happened on the blockchain. This can be frustrating and confusing for users. I personally felt this frustration while using Sun Swap, which is a popular decentralised exchange on Tron.

Our goal with ExploreX is to make things easier. We want to provide a simple and seamless way for users to check what happened with their transactions. You’ll be able to see your balance and all the necessary details right after the transaction is done without having to jump to another page. This will not only help experienced users but also make life much easier for newcomers.

So, stay tuned for updates on ExploreX, and if you have any questions or ideas, don’t hesitate to reach out. Your support means a lot to us!

[HODL]

Just waiting for to try out ExploreX. Any ETA on demo video and test instructions?

[Nweke-nature1.com]

Good to know, thanks for your response, wishing you all the best

[Sakhi]

Thank you for your questions, and apologies for the delay.

Participating in the Tron hackathon is a new experience for me. ExploreX is a project I developed specifically for this event.

ExploreX’s commitment to being a public good means it’s available for developers to integrate into their DApps, contributing to improved user experiences across the blockchain community and enhancing DApp quality.

Your interest and support are greatly appreciated!

[Sakhi]
