Request: blockchain browser for Everscale #18
Description
The current task is briefly described, and it can be solved in various ways. Please provide your vision of the solution, outline the work plan, estimate the required time to complete the plan, and suggest the expected reward. If you are unsure, you may leave this field blank.
The blockchain ecosystem currently lacks a way to display the blockchain data, even for the most common formats such as plain text or jpeg images.
Without a platform/application/toolkit to bridge this gap, the blockchain is doomed to remain out of reach for the common people lacking either skills or experience to fluently translate TVM native cells to pixels with a pen and paper.
To put it simply, our blockchain needs a browser to flourish (or to survive) for the very same reasons the infamous global network relies on WWW browsers.
From the technical standpoint, this project is definitely doable. All the blockchain-related nuances have been pondered, examined, tried, solved and placed on a shelf a few months ago. I drafted a proof-of-concept GUI app over a weekend - it worked, although it looked both scary and pitiful at once :)
This project is a key to the success of the Everscale blockchain.
Thank you in advance for your support.

UPD
What the expected solution is NOT:
- not a block explorer;
- not a subcomponent of the existing Internet browser
what it is: - a standalone application capable of using helper libraries and invoking external transport layer utilities
- reading data in the native format (TVM Cells)
