Launch a private Ethereum Testnet with all clients and MEV infra

We've been working with the Ethereum Foundation & Flashbots to build tooling and infrastructure for developers to test various workflows for Ethereum. As part of that work, anyone can now spin up a local Ethereum dev net with the entire Flashbots mev-boost infra (relayer, builder, boost) using the ethereum-package. This package supports all EL and CL client types, works on Kubernetes for scale testing, and comes with a few bells and whistles like metrics, mock-builders, and beacon chain explorers. This is the de-facto tool for teams modifying and testing the consensus layer. Here's a full…

Designed for teams testing and modifying Ethereum consensus layer functionality, it provides a comprehensive development environment for blockchain testing workflows.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
