Detailed Plan

What is chain-lib/cardano-api & chain-lib/cardano-components?

Chain lib is an open-source blockchain library monorepo. That means that multiple related projects will all be worked on in this repository.

Cardano-api is a wallet API that follows CIP-30 dapp connector. An easy analogy is that it is building the truffle sweet, for Cardano. It is difficult for a developer that is not intimately failure with Cardano and message signing to use CIP-30. Therefore this API also exposes several functions to staking and transactions easier. You can find needed updates in the open-source funding section.

Cardano-components are web-components (ie you can use them in any framework, react, vue, angular, etc), that utilize the Cardano blockchain. Currently, there are components for initializing cardano-api, asking the user for permission to connect to your wallet, sending transactions, and staking. Every new component is used to update, add to, and test cardano-api.

Overview

Cardano-components can be ported to WordPress so anyone can interact with Cardano web3, without having to be a programmer. This way an artist could make a competent website, utilizing the Cardano blockchain, without having to understand how everything works.

Definition of success

Within 6 months all components should have fully automated deployments as a WordPress plugin.

Budget Breakdown

Creating plugins = $50 USD * 37 hrs

Automating deployment of plugins = $50 USD * 80 hrs
