Any tools that help to streamline the development process and make the developers\u2019 jobs easier are the unsung heroes of a healthy blockchain ecosystem.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Examples:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>SDKs for any popular language (Python, Ruby, C#, etc.)&nbsp;<\/li><li>CLI tools&nbsp;<\/li><li>Testing frameworks&nbsp;<\/li><li>Sandboxes&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/AccumulateNetwork\/assembly-hackathon\/labels\/Apps%20on%20Accumulate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Apps on Accumulate<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any tool that helps developers or users interact with the Accumulate protocol can fall under this list. Tools and services that help applications manage their on-chain operations or interact with the ledger will be extremely helpful in aiding developers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Examples:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Block explorers&nbsp;<\/li><li>GUI desktop clients&nbsp;<\/li><li>Faucets&nbsp;<\/li><li>Node-as-a-service&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/AccumulateNetwork\/assembly-hackathon\/labels\/Wallets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Wallets<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the most user-centric category, as wallets are the premier way that users interact with blockchain protocols. The more wallets the merrier, but we\u2019ll be especially impressed if it has a creative yet intuitive user experience and strong security.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Examples:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Mobile wallets&nbsp;<\/li><li>Desktop wallets&nbsp;<\/li><li>Browser plug-ins&nbsp;<\/li><li>Hardware wallet apps&nbsp;<\/li><li>Web wallet UI (connect using a hardware device or keystore file)&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/AccumulateNetwork\/assembly-hackathon\/labels\/Bridges%20Layers%20Oracles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bridges, Layers, Oracles<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The above three are so important that they needed their own category! Bridges allow users to bring tokens on other blockchain networks into the Accumulate ecosystem (or even between the various chains in Accumulate). Layers&nbsp;refers&nbsp;to segments of functionality that extend Accumulate and allow for even more use cases.
