What is it?
A utility that monitors events on the Stellar network and forwards them to a webhook. The specific events can be filtered by event type as well as on fields in the event. For example, whenever someone sent XLM to address XYZ you would receive a POST to http://example.com/process-incoming-payments
Why is it useful?
This is most useful if your application is built around microservices or if you're using a serverless stack like Amazon Lambda or Google Cloud Functions.
You can run this project in a lightweight VM or cloud instance and then forward only the events you're interested in to dedicated endpoints. This allows for simpler and more flexible code when writing applications that need to be notified when things happen on the Stellar network.
