Inspiration

Aragon is enabling a new class of applications for organizations. While the ability to organize using an immutable ledger is a major improvement for teams, the usability of applications in the space have room to improve. We want to see apps that run on the blockchain but have a look and feel of consumer apps that people are used to.

What it does

The Aragon Social app is a commenting app that is meant to integrate with other Aragon apps.

How I built it

  • There's a smart contract for posting comments and associating names and profile photos to addresses
  • We used the Aragon UI components for the comments
  • We used an external GraphQL server for off chain data

Challenges I ran into

  • We had trouble using the cli but Brett was able to help us out
  • We had issues with CORS hitting a 3rd party API from the iFrame.
  • NPM

What I learned

  • We learned the internals of Aragon.js, the Aragon client, and how apps integrate with the platform.
