Canton explorer

Does canton have an inbuilt explorer like hyperledger fabric? I dont mean the DAML navigator. I mean an explorer which tracks the transactions.

What are your expectations from such a tool, i.e. what information are you trying to get or are there features of the Fabric Explorer that you are looking for equivalents?

Remember that Canton provides privacy and thus there is no"single viewable ledger" in the same way as Fabric. Each participant node has a slice of the virtual ledger and, by design, it doesn’t get visibility into transactions or active contracts on another participant. The synchronizer, also by design, only sees the sequence of transactions but not the contents.

Thanks for your reply. I was indeed looking for a “single viewable ledger”, but I understand that such a tool would be unfeasible due to how Canton operates.
