Track Public API Nodes for IoTeX Mainnet

[simonerom]

Description

Build a portal and with relevant tools to track all public API gateway nodes of the IoTeX testnet and mainnet (i.e. Full nodes running that have their API enabled).

Context

With more traffic and users on the IoTeX mainnet, we expect more public nodes running by community members to join.

Acceptance criteria

• Milestone 1: Frontend
  • Displays all public API nodes for IoTeX Mainnet, with health status in real-time and useful metadata
  • Encourages and enables people to submit their node data, e.g., name/IP/version/email/social media/location/max load/SLA
  • Guides people on setup an IoTeX full API node in a visually appealing layout (should be better than the current documentation)
  • Auto rewards the owners with NFT badges for continue and quality serving. Examples badges are:
    • 7-day in a roll, 30-day in a roll, 100-day in a roll, and so on
    • 99% Uptime
    • Most active on social
• Milestone 2: Backend
  • Health-check the participating nodes periodically, better from multiple regions
  • Aggregate the health status of nodes and provide the data to the frontend
  • Sends alerts to the owner if the node is down

Hi @simonerom, I'm going to start the work with frontend. Is there any preffered framework to use? I thought of using Angular?
