eosc command-line swiss-knife

eosc is a cross-platform (Windows, Mac and Linux) command-line tool for interacting with an EOS.IO blockchain.

It contains tools for voting and a Vault to securely store private keys.

It is based on the eos-go library, used in eos-bios, the tool used to launch the EOS mainnet.

FAQ

Why not use cleos instead ?

• hard to compile
• uses sha512 as key derivation, Argon2 is stronger.
• not work on Windows
• no need to run keosd separately and manage your keys on a Linux or Mac machine.
• single binary that brings keosd and cleos together
