What's New
FireFly 1.0 Is Now Available on Kaleido
FireFly 1.0 is now generally available on Kaleido with an enhanced FireFly Explorer, as well as new light and dark mode options. Build production-grade apps with FireFly on Kaleido's scalable cloud infrastructure with HA/DR, 24x7 support, and SLAs. Read the announcement post.
FireFly Sandbox Integration
We've added a Sandbox UI to quickly test and iterate tokens, messages, and smart contracts. The Sandbox acts like an "end-user" application written to use FireFly's API. To help developers, code snippets are shown and debugging is simplified with server responses and events listed. Sandbox UI supports light & dark mode integration as well. Learn how to access the Sandbox.
New FireFly Token Templates in Token Factory
We've added support for two new token templates (ERC20 with data and ERC721 with data) that can be plugged directly into the Sandbox to create token pools. Check out our tokens documentation.
External Certificate Authority Support for Fabric
We've implemented the option to use an external certificate authority for Fabric. Read our Fabric CA docs.
Fabric Certificate Authority Service Backup
We now offer the ability to back up Fabric Certificate Authority services using the platform API. Learn more about backups.
Kaleido Managed Wallet Optimization
The Kaleido Managed Wallet has been optimized for the reading and indexing of runtimes with a large number of accounts.
Block Explorer Performance Improvements
Block Explorer now has improved query speeds through enhanced indexing of chains with large numbers of token transfers.
