I'm a big fan of simplicity. In life, in architecture, in engineering, all of it.

For a long time, my go-to Hive block explorer was hiveblockexplorer.com by penguinpablo@penguinpablo. It was simple and stupid, in the best way. I could check blocks, transactions, and accounts, and that was it. No race for my attention, no fight for my focus when the page opened. I liked that a lot.

Modern Hive explorers make my brain hurt a little. Flashy components everywhere, dashboards competing for attention before I've even found what I came for. And hiveblockexplorer.com has been offline for a while now.

So I built and deployed hivescan.io for that reason.

What it does for you


That's it. That's the whole feature list, on purpose.

What it doesn't do


It runs fully client-side. no backend, no indexer. which means no search, no advanced queries, none of that. take it as is.

Contribute
