The problem Block Alerts solves
Block Alerts solve the following problems:
- You can get notified when your smart contract function gets executed by anyone.
- You don't have to check etherscan repeatedly to check if execution is successful or failed.
- There are 3.2 Million Twitter followers in WhaleAlerts channel so there is a need of alerting for everyone.
- You can use Block Alerts for debugging purpose of your smart contracts.
Challenges we ran into
Backend
- It was hard to crawl the etherscan page to get useful insights.
- We could not implement the Analytics due to poor wifi and hotspot.
Frontend
- Due to poor wifi, downloading
node_modules
took like forever.
- A lot of discussion happened over design of frontend.
