An explorer for the Avail Nexus — showing cross-chain interactions, rollup settlements, and the unified interface that connects the modular blockchain ecosystem.
What it is. A web explorer for the Avail Nexus: the layer where the ecosystem’s chains meet. Where a standard block explorer watches one chain, this one watches the connections — rollups settling, cross-chain interactions flowing, and the network acting as one system rather than a set of isolated ledgers.
The design problem. Cross-chain activity is inherently relational: a settlement only makes sense in the context of the chain it settles to and the data it depends on. Explorer pages built around single transactions lose that context. This explorer is organised around the relationships — chains, settlements between them, and the state of the connections — so a user can answer “is the ecosystem working as a whole?” at a glance.
Who it’s for. Operators of rollups settling to the Nexus, engineers tracing cross-chain interactions, and evaluators who want to see ecosystem-level health — how many chains are live, whether settlements are proceeding, where activity concentrates.
How it’s built. A static, fast front-end over the network’s public APIs, with the same design discipline as the rest of the Avail tooling: summary state first, raw detail one click deeper. Dense technical data is given visual structure — connection states, settlement flows, activity distribution — rather than presented as tables of hashes.
A concrete use case. After a new rollup joins the network, its team uses the explorer to confirm their settlement path is live and finalising as expected, and to see their chain appear alongside the rest of the ecosystem — a public, independent check that doesn’t require running their own node.
