It helps detect risky transactions before they are signed and provides human-readable context to smart contracts, making Web3 safer for everyone.* ### 💻 The Tech Stack Building this was a massive learning experience. Here is the stack I used to bring it to life:</li> <li> <strong>Frontend:</strong> [e.g., React / Next.js]</li> <li> <strong>Blockchain:</strong> [e.g., Stellar Network / Soroban]</li> <li> <strong>Backend:</strong> [e.g., Node.js / Express]</li> <li> <strong>Styling:</strong> [e.g., Tailwind CSS] ### 🐛 Why I Need Your Help (Beta Testers Wanted!) Building the backend logic and smart contracts was a blast, but to officially pass my Blue Belt milestone, <strong>I need real user feedback</strong>. As developers, we all know that what makes perfect sense to us in our IDE rarely makes sense to the end user. I need the DEV community to take a look, try to break it, critique the UI/UX, and tell me what features are actually useful. <strong>Here’s how you can help me out:</strong> </li> <li> <strong>🚀 Try Web3 Guard:</strong> <a href="https://web3-guard-stellar-gilt.vercel.app/" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://web3-guard-stellar-gilt.vercel.app/</a> </li> <li> <strong>📝 Roast it (Constructively!):</strong> Take 2 minutes to fill out my official feedback form so I can use the data for my submission: <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/14wR7Loll1Q1onxTAm7IL8ZzI8AeCnk-ai6MMFfuQQDQ/viewform" rel="noopener noreferrer">Link to Google Form</a> I'll be taking all the feedback to iterate on the project as I work towards the final Black Belt submission! Let me know in the comments if you have any questions about building on Stellar or Soroban—I'd love to chat about the developer experience!</li> </ul> stellarchallenge ai security showcase
