DcFund is a decentralized crowdfunding platform that leverages blockchain technology to enable transparent and secure fundraising for projects. Built using modern web technologies and decentralized protocols, it empowers users to contribute directly to projects without intermediaries, ensuring transparency and reducing tarrif.
- Decentralized Platform: Built on the Ethereum blockchain, ensuring transparency, security, and trust through smart contracts.
- Smart Contracts: Written in Solidity and deployed using Hardhat to handle the crowdfunding process, including fund collection and withdrawal, in a trustless environment.
- Project Creation: Users can create projects, set funding goals, and provide details about their project, such as descriptions, timelines, and rewards for backers.
- Contribution Tracking: Real-time tracking of contributions, allowing users to monitor project progress and see how funds are utilized.
- Secure Transactions: Contributions are handled securely via blockchain, with funds only released when specific conditions, like funding goals, are met.
- Next.js: For building a fast and scalable web application with server-side rendering capabilities.
- TypeScript: To add static type checking and enhance code reliability.
- Hardhat: A development environment for compiling, deploying, testing, and debugging Ethereum smart contracts.
- Solidity: For writing smart contracts that manage the decentralized crowdfunding process.
- Tailwind CSS: To design a responsive and modern UI with utility-first styling.
- Netlify: To deploy and host the frontend application with CI/CD integrations for faster development cycles.
