Hello again Product Hunt!
Blockchain Demo is my attempt at demystifying the technology behind cryptocurrencies. It has a living blockchain, a peer-to-peer network, and a user tour.
The popularity of Blockchain CLI (https://github.com/seanseany/blo...) motivated me to build Blockchain Demo. This project is also inspired by https://anders.com/blockchain/
If you have any feedback, please let me know! The more people that understand the technology, the better!
Thank you for tuning in!

This is really well executed Sean. As a visual learner this is *so* much easier to learn with than reading wikipedia or an article. Thanks for putting the time into this 🙌
As someone writing his high school dissertation about Blockchain and its impact, getting a visual impression of the theoretical understanding I had so far is invaluable! Thank you for saving my high school dissertation!!
Really awesome tutorial and helped a lot in understanding what everyone is talking about these days. A few issues I found:
This doesn't make any sense to me.
If you enter in a space to the data field, it moves the tutorial forward.
Finally, the CPU usage is pretty unruly, but I read above that you're using the browser to mine it, so I suppose that's part of the tutorial that it'll cook your computer if you try to do this yourself. :)
@joshuapinter Thank you for the feedback! I'm probably going to lower the difficulty to 3 (from 4), since it is eating CPU. What do the rest of you think?
Overall. I think this has awesome potential for teaching your everyday developer about how blockchain technology works. (would say everyday person But im not sure if thats too far of a stretch) Good work!
Pros:
Takes a very complicated process and symplifies it with top level code examples along with written examples and diagrams
Cons:
UX is a little rough. Not being able to click off the tutroial to follow along is frustrating
This is really cool and educational! I can't say that I understand the entire technology behing the crypto world, but I definetly have a better understanding now!!! Thanks Sean!
I've tried my hardest to understand blockchains and mining, but this is the first time I've felt like followed every bit of it. Visuals are incredible.
Great work. What I think it's missing (at least in the demo) is exactly how transactions are recorded and verified on the blockchain. When a block is successfully mined, the miner has the opportunity to include a bunch of transactions in that block, but how is that done?
