Thank you for building this. I'm sure people above and beyond my technical expertise will disagree, however, I think this is very innovative. How many hours did you put into this?

Also, (my ignorance is showing here) it looks like this has been built to interact with the test network. Is there plans, or am I able to write to the main net?

This was my first NEAR protocol project. I believe I spent about a day or two for both UX and contract. UI/UX took more time, since frontend isn’t my area of expertise.

That’s correct. The contract is deployed on NEAR testnet. I would love to move it to mainnet (and to its proper domain as well), provided it gets some traffic and attraction. Both cost money haha!

That is a wonderful project. Decentralization is something that everyone should support. If you add dark mode, I will use it everyday
Thanks. Will add dark mode to it within this week and update here :)
