The incubator Arweave India has been consistently delivering high-quality projects to the ecosystem. Just recently, the second edition of the Hacker House Demo Day wrapped up, and the third edition has already kicked off with great momentum.

As usual, this edition of Hacker House brought together 30 developers and designers in Bangalore, India. After 4 days of discussions, sprints, and testing, 8 new projects were born. After intense competition, the top3 winners were selected:

1st place: Hagrid
2nd place: AO Learn
3rd place: Ctrl Play, Anon

All the projects from the Hacker House are permanently hosted on Arweave, with their frontends deployed through Arlink and their codebases hosted on Protocol.Land. Let's take a look at these 8 new projects!

Hagrid: A Decentralized Search Engine Built for Arweave

Hagrid is a decentralized search engine powered by ArIndexer, designed to search and index data on Arweave. Currently, not much is known about Hagrid itself, but to understand it, we can start by looking at ArIndexer, as the core functionality should be quite similar.

ArIndexer is a lightweight indexing tool for Arweave with the following main features:

Efficient Data Management: Supports fast indexing and retrieval of project data, simplifying the data management process for decentralized applications. Projects deployed on Arlink are automatically indexed without additional configuration.
Deep Ecosystem Integration: Seamlessly integrates with Arweave, helping developers efficiently build and manage decentralized applications.
TypeScript Support: Offers comprehensive type declarations to improve the development experience and ensure code accuracy and reliability.
