Backend

GovTool backend implements an API wrapper around an instance of DB-Sync which interfaces with a Cardano Node. The API exposes endpoints making the querying of governance related data from DB-Sync straight forward.

Frontend

GovTool frontend web app communicates with the backend over a REST interface, reading and displaying on-chain governance data. Frontend is able to connect to Cardano wallets over the CIP-30 and CIP-95 standards.
