Lens is a Go library and command-line tool designed to interact with any blockchain that uses the Cosmos SDK, including the Cosmos Hub and IBC chains. It provides a unified API for querying chain data, managing keys, and broadcasting transactions, simplifying the development of Cosmos-based applications. The project packages best practices into a reusable module, making it easier to build complex clients without dealing with low-level details.
Go developers building applications on Cosmos SDK blockchains, such as trading bots, indexers, server-side automation, and transaction automation tools. It's also suitable for teams needing a reliable client library for interacting with multiple IBC chains.
