Tau HUD

Developers

Put the live Tau testnet on your own site.

Copy one line: a widget for any web page, a badge for a GitHub README or a forum signature, or read the JSON API yourself. Free, no key, no tracking. Everything updates by itself from our node.

Widget

Live numbers for your page in three sizes. Each box links to its page on tauhud.com; the numbers grow with the space you give them.

1Card all boxes, for a sidebar or a page

2One number the first box you picked

3Strip one line, no footer, for a header or a forum post

Badges

Small images that stay current (refreshed every minute). Green means good news: the node is live, a rule change is coming up.

In a README, side by side
