NEWS & Developments
* GRIN GUI Wallet
Long awaited GRIN GUI wallet is WIP ( Work- In-Progress) finally !
From GRIN GUI Github;
The Grin Core Team's goal was to have a GUI( graphical user interface ) for both the Grin Wallet and the Grin Node, it is early version and first support for Windows then Linux and MacOS will follow.
Goals as stated below;
‘‘ The Grin team has spent countless hours making Grin's infrastructure extremely flexible, with multiple ways of running nodes and wallets and extensive developer APIs and documentation for both.’’
This project aims to pull all of this work together to create a lightweight, flexible and user-friendly method of using GRIN ツ. ‘‘
This includes:
Presenting a completely working Single UI for both Grin Node and Grin Wallet.
Allowing all wallet transaction operations to be performed in a user-friendly and intuitive manner.
Create and manage a Grin node in-application if desired, while also retaining the options to communicate with other configured or public nodes.
The ability to create, configure and manage multiple wallets and nodes including existing installations.
