Motivation
The popularity of (de)generative art (e.g. Degen Ape Academy 6) has been growing on a daily basis on all the progressive and classical networks. Numerous collections have been launched by artists from all over the world adding great value to the communities of blockchain projects, increasing the popularity of charity-related and charity-focused projects spreading the word to the off-chain audience.
Vast communities have been created around collections that connect people with common interests and opinions. A number of blockchain projects benefit greatly from such initiatives as they bring additional value to somewhat ‘faceless technologies’. The popularity creates demand - demand for documentation, tools, and solutions that help artists and creators join the NFT movement easily and comfortably. The less one needs to know and understand the tech behind it - the wider and faster adoption goes.
The goal
To develop a smart contract system and set of scripts that will perform a whole cycle of the creation of a generative NFT collection including but not limited to:
media and metadata upload into collection generator
metadata (traits & royalties) support - stored on-chain
upload of the collection media to the main net or drive-chain or IPFS
minting by the administrator (zero fees)
minting by the user with a pre-defined minting price
User flow
The following steps will be performed by the user to see his collection created:
Media files preparation
Metadata compilation
Creation of the collection distributor
Uploading the media and metadata into the distributor
Configuration of the distribution mechanics (price, dates etc)
NFT minting with set parameters
Codebase
Any scripts and smart contracts from previous contests are allowed.
Security
The provided solution has to provide safety to both the user’s funds and NFTs. The ownership of the NFTs in the collection can not be changed by the administrator under any circumstances.
Submission format and requirements
GitHub repository
PR in Free Ton repository
Free Software License
Submissions with failing builds/tests/samples will be rejected
Video presentation - a strong plus
Apart from uploading a submission, a code should be submitted in accordance with GitHub - freeton-org/readme 3
DeBot for minting an NFT
Forum post in the same thread as the contest announcement
Evaluation criteria
Functionality
Security
Responsible functions in smart contracts - a strong plus
Code quality & documentation
Documentation should have an explanation of the following basic things working with the smart-contract system:
Compile from sources
Deploy to the blockchain
Verify installation integrity
Utilize primary functionality
Observe execution results
Each of the steps above must:
a) Have steps to reproduce described in the README file
b) Have specified expected outcome
c) Be consistently reproducible according to the a)
d) Provide means to compare actual results to the expected according to the b)
No third-party technologies should be required for the above except the standard (shipped with the OS).
Any extra dependency should be justified and kept to a minimum.
Score penalties for violations of each of the requirements:
0.5 points if minor issues
1 point if major issues
2 points if the requirement is not met
