Blockchain Task Manager

A decentralized task management application built on Ethereum/Polygon that allows users to create, edit, complete, and delete tasks on the blockchain.

Project Structure

• contracts/: Smart contract code
• frontend/: React frontend application
• scripts/: Deployment and utility scripts
• test/: Smart contract tests

Smart Contract Features

• Create tasks with title and description
• Edit existing tasks
• Mark tasks as completed
• Delete tasks
• Task ownership verification
• Priority levels and due dates

Prerequisites

• Node.js 16+ and npm/pnpm
• MetaMask browser extension
• Sepolia or Mumbai testnet ETH/MATIC

Setup

1. Clone the repository
2. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   # or
   pnpm install

3. Copy .env.example to .env and update the values:

   cp .env.example .env

4. Update the .env file with your:
   • Infura/Alchemy API keys for Sepolia and Mumbai
   • Private key for deployment
   • Etherscan/Polygonscan API keys for verification

Deploying the Smart Contract

Deploying to Sepolia

npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js --network sepolia

Deploying to Mumbai

npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js --network mumbai

The deployment script will:

1. Compile the contract
2. Deploy it to the specified network
3. Wait for confirmations
4. Verify the contract on Etherscan/Polygonscan
5. Save deployment information to deployments/{network}.json
6. Update the frontend .env.local file with the contract address

Verifying the Contract

The deployment script attempts to verify the contract automatically. If verification fails, you can manually verify using:

npx hardhat verify --network sepolia DEPLOYED_CONTRACT_ADDRESS
# or
npx hardhat verify --network mumbai DEPLOYED_CONTRACT_ADDRESS

Frontend Setup

After deploying the contract:

1. Navigate to the frontend directory:

   cd frontend

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   # or
   pnpm install

3. Update the .env.local file with your deployed contract addresses (the deployment script should do this automatically)

4. Start the development server:

   npm run dev
   # or
   pnpm dev

5. Open http://localhost:3000 in your browser

Deploying the Frontend

See the frontend README for instructions on deploying the frontend to Vercel or Netlify.

Testing

Run the smart contract tests:

npx hardhat test
