story

Building software isn't just a job, it's a journey.

the problem

NEAR was still a new project, hot off the presses and lunging forward at full-steam, and people knew it. It seemed that every week there was a new development: Aurora, Octopus, Skyward, Ref Finance, Berry Club… the list goes on.

Developers were adopting the platform at breakneck speed, and the team at NEAR worked tirelessly on Explorer and Wallet to make sure that the core ecosystem tools could support the influx of developer interest.

Hi. I'm Jacob, the developer of stats.gallery. I saw NEAR as a great, burgeoning platform that was extremely developer-friendly and was poised to make some big waves in the crypto space.

However, developer adoption is just one step in the process to going mainstream. Wallet and Explorer are great tools for everybody to clearly see the spicy details of their accounts and the whole network, but they're a specific type of tool: indicators that provide information, but don't necessarily delineate a path forward.

stats.gallery strives to be that friendly guide.

the guide

I work in tech all day, and I understand it can get a little tiring for everything to be so… technical all the time. That's why stats.gallery tries to ease that burden a little bit by adding some color back into the equation.

When you explore an account, you'll see a few base metrics about the account's activity: How much gas has been spent? How long has the account existed?

Take a look at the Badges page to see some goals to work towards. Receive an NFT or deploy a smart contract and you'll be rewarded with a shiny badge below your name. Stay active to see your score and level grow!

You'll also find some useful charts and graphs, as well as a comprehensive and easy-to-digest list of transactions.

All of this is wrapped up in one nice, tidy, and beautiful package: your stats.gallery.
