Intro to Building on The Graph and Hypergraph
summary
Claims that Hypergraph adds private, encrypted blockchain data via local‑first private spaces and that Substreams streams real‑time chain data into external databases. The demo scaffolds a React app with npx create‑hypergraph, uses TypeSync to edit and sync schema, authenticates with Geo Connect, writes to the sync server and then publishes an entity to the public knowledge graph — the publish succeeds. Hackathon bounties target these tools (Hypergraph first prize $2,500, runner up $1,500; Substreams/token API categories also rewarded).
