# Blobscan Project Roadmap

## Roadmap Proposal #1

### Milestone #1: Alpha release

- **Target Date**: End of March.
- **Description**: Release all core features and functionality, allowing users to search blob transaction data on the latest devnet version.
- **Deliverables**:
    - Blob indexer:
        - Set up infrastructure for the incoming 4844 devnet v4.
        - Migrate to a Rust implementation.
    - Web app:
        - New identity and UI designs implementation.
        - Block, transaction, and blob views.
        - Search and filtering functionality (e.g., search by datahash, KZG commitment, transaction, etc.).
    - Database layer:
        - Schema and data models design and implementation.
- **Amount**: USD 30,000

### Milestone #2: New features and rollups onboarding

- **Target Date**: End of April.
- **Description**: We will add new functionalities, work on the specification of the REST API, and do outreach rollup projects for feature requests.
- **Deliverables:**
    - Blob indexer:
        - Changes to make the software more robust and flexible.
    - Web app:
        - Start with the blob-focused charts and metrics dashboard.
        - Implement responsive design for medium and smaller devices.
        - Optimize views.
    - REST API:
        - Write the specification.
    - Rollup projects outreach (Scroll, Optimism, Aztec, and Arbitrum):
        - Prepare first contact meetings.
        - User requirement capture study.
    - Data provider:
        - Integrate Swarm as data provider for blobs
-  **Amount**: USD 30,000

### Milestone #3: REST API, testing and documentation

- **Target Date**: End of May.
- **Description**: Implement REST API, finish the metrics dashboard, ramping up on testing and documentation.
- **Deliverables**:
    - Web app:
        - Continue with charts and metrics dashboard, including:
            - Blob usage over time.
            - Gas expenditure comparison of blob vs. legacy transactions. 
        - Implement tagging feature to detect which L2 rollup generates the blob transaction.
        - Integration tests.
    - REST API:
        - Spec implementation.
        - Test plan and test case creation.
    - Documentation:
        - Create a docs site with a static site generator.
        - Web app features, user and developer FAQs sections.
        - API getting started and endpoints section.
    - Testing:
        - Integration tests between database, web app, and API.
- **Amount**: USD 20,000

### Milestone #4: Database optimization and wrapping up

- **Target Date**: End of June.
- **Description**: We will finalize the blob indexer and make it available through a docker container. Furthermore, we will add the final touches to the overall documentation and provide the last API feature.
- **Deliverables**:
    - Blob indexer:
        - Docker containerization.
        - Integrate to the [eip44-interop repo](https://github.com/Inphi/eip4844-interop).
    - REST API:
        - Verification tooling:
            - KZG commitments verification and versioned hash conversion.
            - Blob sidecar verification.
    - Database layer:
        - Performance optimizations: indexing, partitioning, and query improvements.
    - Documentation:
        - Web app features sections.
        - API endpoints sections.
- **Amount**: USD 20,000
