Description and Notes

This PR adds comprehensive documentation for the floresta-watch-only crate, addressing issue #782.

The README covers the three main aspects requested by the maintainer:

  • What: Clear explanation of the watch-only wallet functionality and its role in the Floresta ecosystem
  • Why: Use cases including security separation, balance monitoring, hardware wallet integration, and server-side infrastructure
  • How: Detailed architecture overview with Mermaid diagrams, key components documentation, data flow explanation, and practical usage examples

The documentation follows the style and structure of floresta-wire's README, maintaining consistency across the project.

How to verify the changes you have done?

  1. Navigate to crates/floresta-watch-only/README.md
  2. Verify the markdown renders correctly (GitHub preview or local markdown viewer)
  3. Check that Mermaid diagrams render properly on GitHub
  4. Confirm all code examples use correct syntax
  5. Verify links to related crates and external documentation work

@Edu92337 can you remove the "Closes #782" from the description? This only addresses a single crate.

@luisschwab just following up on this. I've made the changes you requested and all tests are passing. Let me know if there's anything else needed.

### Security Separation

Keep private keys on air-gapped or hardware devices while monitoring balances and transaction history on internet-connected systems.

We don't use private keys, only public keys, so I don't think the way it's described here is very good for describing floresta-wallet.

Please include_str! this into floresta-watch-only's lib.rs and update its Cargo.toml to link this README rather than the global one.

I think it would be nice to have the examples working, so we can make sure they are up to date

Hi @moisesPompilio and @Davidson-Souza. The CI is failling and I don't know why. Can one of you point me at the correct direction of the errors?

The code in the README need to be valid and compilable. You can test this locally by running cargo test --doc -- --show-output.

Why did you add this? Code in doccomments should be compilable and correct.

- **transactions**: Txid to `CachedTransaction` mappings
- **stats**: Wallet statistics and metadata

As mentioned here, it's better to put code that actually works in documentation examples, so I don't think rust,no_run should be present without some justification.

Yes. I've tested the documentation examples. Running cargo test --doc -p floresta-watch-only , all test have passed.

Hi @Edu92337 , thank you for reviewing this. After discussing with members of the Floresta team, we concluded that the changes appear to be AI-generated and that the suggested fixes were not implemented correctly. I will therefore close this PR to avoid using the team's time.

If you'd like to contribute to the project, please check the "good first issues". They're easier and ideal for newcomers. Please try to contribute without relying heavily on AI.
