github.com/n1ghtfa1l/go-vnt@v0.6.4-alpha.6/cmd/clef/README.md (about) 1 Clef 2 ---- 3 Clef can be used to sign transactions and data and is meant as a replacement for gvnt's account management. 4 This allows DApps not to depend on gvnt's account management. When a DApp wants to sign data it can send the data to 5 the signer, the signer will then provide the user with context and asks the user for permission to sign the data. If 6 the users grants the signing request the signer will send the signature back to the DApp. 7 8 This setup allows a DApp to connect to a remote VNT node and send transactions that are locally signed. This can 9 help in situations when a DApp is connected to a remote node because a local VNT node is not available, not 10 synchronised with the chain or a particular VNT node that has no built-in (or limited) account management. 11
