📄️ Introduction
A Blockchain stores data in a very disperesed manner, making it incredibly streneous to query relevant data for a specific usecase. There isn't a native feature/functionality to identify, sort and query linked data (spanning across multiple blocks).
📄️ SDK
Ternoa SDK provides a collection of helpers to make development on top of the Ternoa Chain easier and faster.
📄️ IPFS
The media associated with NFTs, and other associated metadata, are stored offchain in a decentralised storage network: IPFS, Interplanetary File Systems. Only the link to this metadata is stored on-chain as part of the NFT. This link is frequently a fingerprint called a cryptographic hash ID (e.g. Qmf5RHhnUjSCfCN9d1Ee6sUWxe3Eqvogw1cTsssrxAxtPn). IPFS files are accessible using those hashes.
📄️ Dictionary
Ternoa Dictionary records all the native substrate on-chain data of the Ternoa blockchain: blocks, extrinsics, and events. It is a glossary of data that pre-indexes chain events, drastically improving the overall indexing performance. Unlike the Indexer, no data relating to the Ternoa pallets is covered by the Dictionary.
