  • ens

    Discontinued Implementations for ENS core functionality: The registry, registrars, and public resolvers.

  • > domain name system

    And it's already there it seems: https://ens.domains/

    I wonder how does one integrate ENS into an existing DNS-based system — is there a DNS-compatible resolver that will look up names on ENS?

    It's also a missed opportunity to provide hierarchical certificates at the same time, signed by the registry, though in a sense, a smart contract is exactly that, but I am more interested in simple name-resolution and TLS communication for traditional web applications like HTTP and mail.

  • web3.js

    Collection of comprehensive TypeScript libraries for Interaction with the Ethereum JSON RPC API and utility functions.

  • ethers.js

    Complete Ethereum library and wallet implementation in JavaScript.

  • https://github.com/ethers-io/ethers.js

    I highly recommend checking out The Graph too - it allows for you to leverage graphQL on your smart contract data by creating a dedicated subgraph. With some careful integration, you can replace a dedicated backend that would normally be required for various APIs with this. It's a very exciting project imo.
