# About Explorer A ranked database system to empower the general public in exploring the privacy levels, security, and reliability of Web3 projects. To make the right decisions, one must be able to compare options. Having more options while your demand for what you need stays the same allows you to find what you need. Data is at the heart of many decision-making processes, from fundraising to attesting the legibility behind ecosystem tooling. As a neutral platform, we are transparent about our system. All changes are committed to our GitHub and are open to all. ## Main features - **[Dashboard with filters and search](https://explorer.web3privacy.info)** ![Explorer](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/B16ay4Sekx.png) - **[Editor](https://explorer.web3privacy.info/project/create)** ![Screenshot 2024-10-03 at 15.24.16](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/SkHexNSlJx.png) - [Detailed project overview](https://explorer.web3privacy.info/project/web3privacynow) ![Screenshot 2024-10-22 at 17.01.45](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/rJTDx4Hx1e.png) - Scoring Mechanism ([learn more about this here](https://mirror.xyz/0x0f1F3DAf416B74DB3DE55Eb4D7513a80F4841073/s9flkE6tMaJ4f2tzWu-FmDy7Zx_TRPe3jdXr2iYmYH0)) ![Screenshot 2024-10-22 at 17.03.10](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/S1Tne4BxJg.png) - **[Public Project Database](https://github.com/web3privacy/explorer-data/tree/main/src/projects)** ![Screenshot 2024-12-02 at 15.39.11](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/H15tGeimyg.png) ## Ethos ### Privacy First The explorer it's main focus is to be able to bring privacy focused projects first.
