The Solana ecosystem is growing at the speed-of-light, and it is vital to build, maintain & grow a common hub for all projects to be listed & verified by the community.
The goal with this site would be to ensure that it represents the diversity of our ecosystem and enables anyone to quickly identify, read & connect with projects from any domain.
