1 year ago Another idea is to have a guided experience in the simulator. A step-by-step walk-through where we explain what each forking rule is while configuring a specific state of the chain that represents that rule being applied.
There should be some visual guidance in place for users to understand why certain things happen in their simulations. I'm thinking of making heavy use of tooltips when hovering blocks, and also making the actions timeline expandable so the consequences of an action can also be explained. For example, instead of just seeing "mined block number 7" we could also say "block number 1 and it's non-canonical forks are now frozen".
