Explorer

When you run Stellar Lab via Quickstart, a lightweight block/transaction explorer is automatically available alongside Lab. This makes it easy to inspect network activity on your local Quickstart network while you build and test.

URLs​

Lab (home): http://localhost:8000/lab

Explorer: http://localhost:8000/lab/transactions-explorer

If you’re using a custom port or host when starting Quickstart, replace localhost:8000 with your chosen address.

What You Can Do with the Explorer​

  • Browse recent transactions on your Quickstart network.
  • Drill into a transaction to view its details (hash, result, involved operations, etc.).
  • Use it alongside Lab tools (e.g., building/signing transactions) to quickly verify results from the local network.

TL;DR​

  1. Start Quickstart (per the repo instructions).
  2. Open Lab: http://localhost:8000/lab.
  3. Open the Explorer: http://localhost:8000/lab/transactions-explorer.
  4. Build and submit transactions in Lab, then switch to the Explorer to confirm they landed.
