Shelby just hit a major milestone the Devnet is officially live.
This marks the beginning of a new phase for the network designed to power the future of decentralized services and real-world applications. Developers can now explore, test, and build directly using the CLI or SDK, available at shelby.xyz.
What makes this launch exciting is how Shelby positions itself at the intersection of infrastructure and utility. The focus is on creating an open, service-oriented network that’s built on Aptos — known for its high throughput, scalability, and low latency.
The Devnet phase will allow developers and contributors to:
- Experiment with Shelby’s tooling in real-time
- Provide feedback on performance and usability
- Contribute to shaping the upcoming mainnet rollout
This is the first step in a longer journey toward production readiness, but it already highlights how fast the ecosystem around Aptos is evolving.
For anyone in the community curious about testing or contributing, the tools are ready and live.
