Alt Art

This project aims to develop a decentralized NFT marketplace where artists can mint and sell their digital artworks while collectors can buy and trade NFTs. The platform will be built using Next.js for frontend development, Supabase as the backend database and authentication provider, and TypeScript for type-safe development. It will incorporate user authentication, tokenization, and features for posting, buying, and selling NFTs.

Objectives:

• Next.js: React framework for building server-side rendered and statically generated web applications.
• Supabase: Open-source Firebase alternative for backend services including database, authentication, and realtime subscriptions.
• TypeScript: Type-safe superset of JavaScript for enhanced developer productivity and code quality.
• Web3.js: Library for interacting with Ethereum blockchain for NFT tokenization and transactions.
• Tailwind CSS: Utility-first CSS framework for designing responsive and customizable UI components.
• Git: Version control system for collaborative development and code management.

Technologies and Tools:

• Next.js: React framework for building server-side rendered and statically generated web applications.
• WordPress: Backend CMS for content management and data storage.
• Algolia: Powerful search and discovery API for implementing fast and efficient search functionalities.
• GraphQL: Query language for interacting with the WordPress backend.
• Tailwind CSS: Utility-first CSS framework for designing responsive and customizable UI components.
• Mapbox API: Integration for displaying maps and implementing map search functionalities.
• Stripe API: Payment processing integration for handling transactions.
• Git: Version control system for collaborative development and code management.

 Features:

• User Authentication: Enable user registration, login, and authentication using Supabase authentication services.
• Profile Management: Allow users to manage their profiles, view transaction history, and update account information.
• NFT Minting: Provide artists with the ability to mint and list their digital artworks as NFTs on the marketplace.
• NFT Listing: Enable artists to create listings for their NFTs, including descriptions, images, pricing, and metadata.
• NFT Marketplace: Implement a marketplace interface for collectors to browse, search, and purchase NFTs from various artists.
• Tokenization: Integrate tokenization mechanisms to represent ownership of digital assets (NFTs) securely on the blockchain.
• Buying and Selling: Facilitate secure transactions for buying and selling NFTs between artists and collectors.
• Typescript Integration: Utilize TypeScript for type-safe development, reducing bugs and improving code maintainability.
