tl;dr: See what's going on with your DeFiChain Masternodes
This software is able to show some interesting information about DeFiChain masternodes. They don't have to be yours. You can see the number of blocks which have been minted by a single or multiple masternodes, how many rewards they have been receiving for that and so on.
The system itself utilizes a DeFiChain Ocean API as its main data source. You can also host your own Ocean by using the "Pond" docker container image.
Masternode Monitor is free and open source. You can host it on your own page if you like. There are some restrictions to its functionality when doing so because not every information and functionality is available via Ocean. That's why there are some centralized APIs I had to build.
The software does not use any kind of user tracking. There's no Google Analytics involved or anything else. So, your privacy is always secured.
You can make a free 'account' to save your masternode list and settings to a centralized service which is also maintained and ran by myself. But that's fully optional.
This application is running on JavaScript. It works in every major browser, including those installed on smartphones and tablets.
It's built upon Vue.js v3, a major JavaScript framework which very elegantly enables developing interconnected components, each in its own single file. It also utilizes Quasar. That's a framework built on top of Vue.js. It aims to provide some easy-to-use components for building a good user interface, such as cards, input fields, buttons and some useful structure around that. It also enables to make iOS and android apps from it.
The application itself uses the browser's data storage to save some data. That's neccessary to give the application the ability to "remember" the masternodes you are watching and your settings and stuff like that. Every reload makes it neccessary to load these things from the browser's data storage. IndexedDB is what MaMon uses in particular. That's why you sholud not delete your whole browser caches, because that would also kill all saved data from MaMon.
This data store is not used directly but with Vue Pinia. That's something what's called "state management". And that's just a fancy term for some kind of runtime data storage. Long story short: Pinia is used to store, process and remotely access data and to provide that to the different components of the application.
All this combined leads to the application itself, which then loads data out of DeFiChain. It does that indirectly by utilizing the official Ocean system, which ist kind of a global super node, providing DeFiChain's internal data through some web-specific communication protocols an techniques, such as API calls via a REST API. The connection to this system is provided by the offivial Jellyfish/Whale package, which manages the whole data connection and data fetching in the background.
The UI is capable of running in different resolutions and environments. This means: You can use it on your desktop computer on a 4k monitor as well as on your small iPhone SE. It will adapt to the very different display sizes and input methods these devices use.
If you want to take a look, you may find some interesting things in the ./src/components/ folder and in ./src/stores/ as well.
You have to have node.js, yarn and quasar cli installed to compile this application by yourself.
yarnquasar devThis will run the application locally and open it up in your default browser.
quasar buildThis will build a production version of the application. You'll find it in the folder
./dist/spa/
