Try   HackMD

Hey there, I'm kira. These are my Week 3 Updates.

Brushed some of basics on running node client. Running a full node on mainnet and got familiar with implementation of Data Structures in the Prysm Codebase. Learnt basics of bazel (a build tool) and BoltDB which is being used as database in Prysm.

This week I went through some of the codebase of Prysm, and made this PR. Discovered and connect with the other fellows who have interest in working on ePBS not sure if anyone is seriously pursuing it or not.

Cleared some of my basics on Time Games and ePBS design with some variations.

Roadmap for Week 4

For Week 4 some of the major tasks would be:

  • Connect with the mentors and gauge the scope to get started on writing the actual proposal
  • Go through the updated spec which would be based on Electra when it's ready, meanwhile learn more on ePBS and clear concepts on Payload Timeliness committee, time games etc.
  • Deep dive into relevant libp2p libraries.
  • Document meaningful and usable notes for the relevant parts of the Prsym codebase.
  • Add the consensus spec page, and complete the gasper consensus protocol for the EPF wiki.
  • Try to contribute to some more good-first issues in the Prysm repo.
