Pontus-X Devnet

The Pontus-X Devnet is a dynamic development environment where new features, algorithms, and datasets are first introduced and tested. The Devnet provides a flexible and iterative platform for developers to innovate and refine their projects before moving them to the Testnet for final validation.

Key Features and Components

Network Configuration

  • Chain ID: 32456
  • Block Explorer URL: Pontus-X Explorer Devnet
  • Provider URL: https://provider.dev.pontus-x.eu
  • Aquarius URL: https://aquarius.pontus-x.eu
  • Subgraph URL: https://subgraph.dev.pontus-x.eu

Purpose and Usage

The Pontus-X Devnet is used for the following purposes:

  • Development and Testing: It provides an environment for developers to build and test new features, algorithms, and datasets.
  • Early-Stage Validation: Projects in their early stages are validated on the Devnet to ensure they function correctly before being moved to the Testnet.
  • Bug Identification and Fixing: Identify and resolve bugs in a controlled setting, ensuring a more stable release on the Testnet.
  • Performance Benchmarking: Conduct performance benchmarking to optimize applications and improve efficiency.
  • Integration Testing: Test the integration of different components and services to ensure seamless interaction.

Additional Tools and Services

  • Development Tools: Utilize various development tools to streamline coding, debugging, and testing processes.
  • Sandbox Environment: A sandbox environment where developers can experiment without affecting the stability of the Testnet.
  • Continuous Integration: Implement continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) pipelines to ensure smooth and automated updates.

Benefits of the Pontus-X Devnet

  1. Innovative Platform: Provides a space for developers to innovate and experiment with new ideas and technologies.
  2. Early Problem Detection: Helps in identifying and fixing issues early in the development cycle, reducing the risk of major problems later.
  3. Collaboration: Facilitates collaboration among developers, encouraging knowledge sharing and collective problem-solving.
  4. Flexibility: Offers a flexible environment where changes can be made quickly and tested without the constraints of a production environment.
  5. Resource Efficiency: Developers can use the Devnet to test their applications without the resource constraints associated with mainnet usage.
  6. Iterative Improvement: Supports an iterative development process, allowing continuous refinement and enhancement of projects.

Monitoring and Debugging

  • Block Explorer: Use the Pontus-X Explorer Devnet to monitor transactions, blocks, and addresses.
  • Logging: Enable detailed logging for your applications to capture transaction details, errors, and performance metrics.
