Dton.io tutorials!

When working with blockchain, we encounter many data-related tasks, for example:

1. search for trends
2. research projects
3. exposing scammers

In order not to parse all the blocks in the data search yourself, there are indexers - services that collect and enrich data. Moreover, as part of the latest trend - instructions, working with indexers is becoming an integral part of dApp.

The author of the @ton_learn channel wrote 4 tutorials on the dton.io indexer, collected in a mini course:

1) Jetton Rankings by Txes in 24 hours

2) Find Top Nft Collection item holders

3) Find Jetton holders

4) NFT Collection Rankings by Sales Volume in 24 hours

Articles were written, within the 252 bountie.

If you have ideas, suggestions for topics for tutorials/articles based on data in the TON blockchain, feel free to write in the comments on the author’s channel: @ton_learn where tutorials and data analytics on TON are published.

TVM Debugger

I have just released an early version of TVM Debugger, which will allow developers to debug their TON contracts as they would debug any regular program - line by line, with breakpoints and variable inspection.

You are welcome to try it out - just look at this example repo.

If you have any feedback, suggestions, bug reports, or anything else of that sort, do not hesitate to post it in the discussion of this post, or simply DM me.

The implementation of the debugger is definitely a little dirty in some places at the moment, so please don't judge the quality of code too harshly yet.

If you would like to learn about the inner workings of the debugger, or about the features that may be implemented in the future, please read this post.

Attention TON Community!

TonTech is on a mission to elevate the TON ecosystem’s core infrastructure—like our very own LiteServer—and we need YOUR insights to shape its future.

Your real-world experiences, whether you’re building dApps, minting NFTs, or diving into DeFi, will guide us in crafting faster, more secure, and more versatile solutions. Let’s pinpoint what’s working, what’s missing, and what we can innovate next.

Help us make TON more powerful and accessible—one insight at a time.

🔨Dev tools updates

Recently new versions of blueprint, sandbox, test-utils, and create-ton have been released. The most important (and breaking) change is the fact that since blueprint v0.28.0 compilers (func-js, tolk, tact) have become peer dependencies. This means that you can pick and choose any compiler version that you need, as long as its API is compatible with what blueprint expects, but this also means that you need to have them listed in your package.json. If you're creating a new project using create-ton, it will add compiler dependencies automatically. If not and if you're upgrading blueprint in an old project, you will have to install compilers yourself, you can use the template's package.json for reference.

Changes to sandbox and test-utils include better support for extra currencies, which might be of use due to the recent developments in TON.
