Hey all !
I've been experimenting with 3D canvas libraries and decided to turn it into something fun for the ecosystem:
Stargorand, a live galactic map visualizing Algorand's consensus in real time!
https://stargorand.vercel.app/
What you're seeing:
- Every active validation node (since participation rewards went live) appears as a pulsating star.
- Star size and color reflect how many blocks the node has proposed historically.
- Every confirmed block triggers a quick animation highlighting the proposer.
- Bigger wallets get cool stellar companions: satellites, planets, moons, Dyson spheres (still in progress!).
- Star position is deterministic so you'll always see yours at the same position relative to the core's rotation and watch it grow over time 🥹
It's still rough around the edges and it doesn't do much, but watching the network "breathe" in this cosmic view is genuinely mesmerizing. It really brings home the liveliness and decentralization of Algorand's PPoS imho
Just wanted to share. Happy to read your thoughts !
What would you enjoy seeing on an app like that ?
