ERC20Votes and Ballot.sol

• (Review) TDD
• Mapping scenarios
• Contracts structure

Homework

• Create Github Issues with your questions about this lesson
• Read the references
• (Optional) Study how ERC20Permit works https://docs.openzeppelin.com/contracts/4.x/api/token/erc20#ERC20Permit
• (Optional) Study and try out a full governance example from https://docs.openzeppelin.com/contracts/4.x/governance

Weekend project

• Form groups of 3 to 5 students
• Complete the contracts together
• Structure scripts to
  • Deploy everything
  • Interact with the ballot factory
  • Query proposals for each ballot
  • Operate scripts
• Publish the project in Github
• Run the scripts with a few set of proposals, play around with token balances, cast and delegate votes, create ballots from snapshots, interact with the ballots and inspect results
• Write a report detailing the addresses, transaction hashes, description of the operation script being executed and console output from script execution for each step
• (Extra) Use TDD methodology
