AI suggestion:

I understand the confusion. Here's a structured plan to make the RPC/API sections more readable and clear:

1. Separate Consensus and DA Endpoints Clearly

Current Issue:

  • Consensus node endpoints are required for DA nodes to post data, but they are listed under DA sections, causing confusion.

Solution:

  • Create distinct sections for Consensus Endpoints and DA Endpoints.
  • Add clarifications that some Consensus Endpoints can be used with DA nodes.

2. Clarify Usage of Endpoints

Current Issue:

  • Lack of clarity on which endpoints can be used with light nodes or bridge nodes.

Solution:

  • Add a brief explanation under each section about the usage of the endpoints.

Example:

Consensus Endpoints

  • Usage: These endpoints are primarily for consensus operations but can also be used by DA nodes (light, bridge) to post data.

3. Reduce Bulleted Lists and White Space

Current Issue:

  • Bulleted lists eat up a lot of space and cause white space.

Solution:

  • Use a table format to list endpoints, which is more compact and readable.

Example Table:

Endpoint Type Endpoint Port
Consensus RPC public-celestia-rpc.numia.xyz 26657
Consensus gRPC public-celestia-rpc.numia.xyz 9090
DA RPC public-celestia-lcd.numia.xyz 1317
DA gRPC public-celestia-lcd.numia.xyz 9090

5. Provide a Summary

Current Issue:

  • Users might miss the overall purpose of each endpoint type.

Solution:

  • Provide a brief summary at the beginning of each section.

Example Summary:

Consensus Endpoints:

  • Used for consensus operations and can be utilized by DA nodes for posting data.

DA Endpoints:

  • Used for querying data on Celestia, sampling data, and broadcasting transactions without running a full consensus node.

Implementation Example:

## Consensus Endpoints
**Purpose:** Used for consensus operations and can also be used by DA nodes to post data.

| Endpoint Type | Endpoint | Port |
| ------------- | -------- | ---- |
| Consensus RPC | `public-celestia-rpc.numia.xyz` | 26657 |
| Consensus gRPC | `public-celestia-rpc.numia.xyz` | 9090 |
| Consensus RPC | `celestia-rpc.mesa.newmetric.xyz` | 26657 |
| Consensus gRPC | `celestia-rpc.mesa.newmetric.xyz` | 9090 |

## Data Availability (DA) Endpoints
**Purpose:** Used for querying the chain’s state and broadcasting transactions without running a full node.

| Endpoint Type | Endpoint | Port |
| ------------- | -------- | ---- |
| DA RPC | `public-celestia-lcd.numia.xyz` | 1317 |
| DA gRPC | `public-celestia-lcd.numia.xyz` | 9090 |
| DA RPC | `celestia-rest.mesa.newmetric.xyz` | 1317 |
| DA gRPC | `celestia-rest.mesa.newmetric.xyz` | 9090 |

## Trusted Endpoints
**Provider:** DevOps, P-OPS

| Endpoint Type | Endpoint | Port |
| ------------- | -------- | ---- |
| Trusted RPC | `trusted-celestia-rpc.devops.xyz` | 26657 |
| Trusted gRPC | `trusted-celestia-rpc.devops.xyz` | 9090 |
| Trusted RPC | `trusted-celestia-rpc.pops.xyz` | 26657 |
| Trusted gRPC | `trusted-celestia-rpc.pops.xyz` | 9090 |

## Community Endpoints
**Provider:** Various community members

| Endpoint Type | Endpoint | Port |
| ------------- | -------- | ---- |
| Community RPC | `public-celestia-rpc.numia.xyz` | 26657 |
| Community gRPC | `public-celestia-rpc.numia.xyz` | 9090 |
| Community RPC | `celestia-rpc.mesa.newmetric.xyz` | 26657 |
| Community gRPC | `celestia-rpc.mesa.newmetric.xyz` | 9090 |

This should make the documentation more readable and user-friendly.

This issue should handle:

  1. docs: update grove endpoint offerings #1743
  2. feature request: document kingsuper bridge node snapshot #1465
  3. feature request: document polkachu snapshot #1598
  4. and also make a page in docs with paid RPC services that people can use and historical data providers
