In plain English

This project is a demo terminal for looking at trading pairs on the Base blockchain network. It is a public, read only tool: you can browse new pairs, watch volume and momentum feeds, look at price charts, and save a personal watchlist in your browser, but the app cannot connect a wallet or actually execute a trade of any kind. By default the terminal shows mock, made up data, and a switch in the top bar lets you flip to real read only data pulled from DexScreener for pair listings and GeckoTerminal for price charts. No API key is needed for either source. If live data is missing, rate limited, or unavailable, the app clearly labels the chart or pair as unavailable or falls back to a demo placeholder rather than pretending to show something real. Pair data refreshes roughly every 60 seconds, and if a refresh fails, the last known good data stays on screen instead of the page going blank. The README is explicit that this is only a demo of a market viewing interface. There are no wallet connections, no swap execution, no transaction signing, no backend secrets, no real API keys, and no investment advice built in. A swap preview area appears in the interface but its execution button stays disabled throughout. Any market quality labels shown are simple calculations from the visible data, not a genuine safety or investment assessment. The app is built with Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS. To run it locally you install dependencies with npm and start the development server, then open it in your browser. The project also includes automated tests covering provider data parsing and end to end browser checks with Playwright, plus documentation notes describing what future work, like wallet support or real trading, would need to add on top of this public demo.
