Description

User Story As an interested party I want to view a website displaying all seed nodes and public API server nodes on a world map based on IP that comprise the BitShares network so that I may visualization the node distribution and node type.

The required node data must include nodes listed here:

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the seed node list in 'libraries/app/application.cpp' from bitshares core and the API server list in 'app/api/apiConfig.js' from the bitshares ui repository. Understand how to parse and extract those node addresses, then research map visualization libraries (e.g., Leaflet) to plot them. Consider whether to hardcode the list or create a script to fetch live data.
