Web3
Develop Web3 applications without having to worry about running infrastructure
Add-on feature
Web3 (also called the distributed web) refers to a set of technologies for hosting content and applications on decentralized networks — where data is stored across many computers rather than on a single server. These networks use consensus protocols to agree on the state of shared data without relying on a central authority.
