The website has been totally redesigned & re-coded. The previous version used Wordpress for CMS. The current version does not rely on any CMS or DB. It is simple, minimalist, and clean HTML5 / CSS3 / JS, for a totally new look which is more inline with what we are, and what we aim to achieve.

Simple SVG animation on the front page background gives a bit of dynamic Web 3.0 presence without becoming distracting. The inner-pages sport a slight graphic animation also.

#2 Explorer ( https://explorer.ark.io/ )

The ARK explorer has also been completely redesigned, not just graphically, but also entirely re-coded in Angular and TypeScript from scratch to address issues with previous explorers (high memory and CPU consumption, unnecessary calls).

This is still new so some bugs may pop-up. If you notice any, don’t hesitate to open a GitHub issue.

P.S.: Try the new dark theme — it is awesome!

#3 Paper Wallet ( https://arkecosystem.github.io/ark-paperwallet/ )

The ARK paper wallet has also been redesigned to be more inline with our latest changes — simple, clean and minimalist.

#4 Blog ( https://blog.ark.io/ )

As you might have noticed, a few changes — cover image, header image and logo, along with other design changes.

#5 Desktop Wallet ( https://github.com/ArkEcosystem/ark-desktop/releases )

Over the last few months, we have been slowly and constantly improving and redesigning our desktop wallet. Adding a more aesthetic look and the ability to customize for each individual’s needs — custom themes, backgrounds, better menu icons, dark mode, and UI with tooltips… more is added with each new release.

In fact we have grown so accustomed to our desktop wallet that we have decided to shelve the redesign completely. We are removing the desktop wallet redesign from the roadmap indefinitely. As we move forward and add new features and improvements, we adapt the current wallet to match. Perhaps we revisit this in the future, but at the moment we feel the current wallet will be able to handle our future needs and as such, we will divert redesign work to updates and maintaining the current desktop wallet.

What is Next on the Roadmap?

Mobile App Wallet

The Mobile ARK Wallet is something we are currently working on with full force, and is next on our roadmap to be released — we are very excited about this and we hope you will be as well!

And again if you are asking, but when will you release it?

Our motto is simple: “ARK gives no dates, we just deliver!”
