Drand Web App

This is the source code of drand's website, used to smartly present the outputs of the beacon and its network configuration. It comes with additional functionalities such as:

• Possibility to navigate through the randomness history,
• Verification of the generated randomness against the distributed key, using drandjs,
• First contacted node is randomly picked from the latest configuration file hosted on Github,
• User can choose which node of the group is contacted to fetch the randomness from.

You can find a live example at zerobyte.io.
