Gosemble Phase 2 - a Framework for building Substrate-compatible Runtimes in Go (Parachains & Solochains)

by Limechain

Summary:

Advance the Go-based Runtime into a versatile framework, marking the ongoing effort to establish a reusable toolkit for building Substrate-compatible runtimes in Go.

Current Progress and Comments:

The Gossamer proposal was born from the necessity of client diversity. However, this proposal had plans for a long delivery but the latest public commit on the Gosemble repository happened on August 5th. However, the Gossamer repository shows more activity albeit with limited adoption. Reporting, adoption and progress of this project and derived applications as well as the Limechain team has been quite nebulous. It is also curious that a project this ambitious doesn’t have a proper website with its own URL and only a Github page. Moreover, the proposal itself was very contested and the resistance came mainly from the lack of clarity on by the team.
