Inspiration

Hedera is quite efficient blockchain along with an interesting consensus mechanism yet we were not able to see much projects built on it, this led us to our idea to make a dapp where all these project could showcase their talent and get financial help as well which would help them grow at faster scale.

What it does

Our Dapp HedFund enables people to fund projects through interesting voting mechanisms like normal, quadratic, cubic or any type of custom voting. People who want to fund projects have to start a funding proposal, then projects would come to enlist themselves in voting. After that people would be able to vote for the projects based on their quality and finally money would be distributed as per voting mechanism defined by the funder. Funds would be recieved by the person who enlisted these projects helping them grow.

How we built it

We built it using hedera sdks and smart contracts. We deployed smart contracts on Hedera and then interacted with them from the front end using Hedera SDKs. We made interactive UI for users to interact easily with the dapp. we have integrated wallets like metamask, hashpack, and blade so that more and more users are able to use our dapp.

Challenges we ran into

Working and understanding hedera for the first time was difficult for us as coming new to web3 ecosystem. We looked into tutorials, read docs and made the dapp. Then there were some solidity and ethers errors that we resolved as working through.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Making a working web3 app in just 2 days and that also with team working in different time zones and people we have not met before is really a thing to be proud of.

What we learned

We learnt a lot about the web3 ecosystem and are excited to work more on it. Decentrality and trustlessnes are the main feature of blockchain technology and we look forward to leverage them to solve real world problems.

What's next for HedFund

We are really excited to see how community receives HedFund, our aim was to support projects of hedera ecosystem and help it grow. We look forward to work on feedback received from community and bring our dapp to mainnet.
