NFT Tool : Generate, Save, Mint and Sell without any code

The idea is to create a Tool so that artists can use a no-code environment to generate their own 2D and 3D avatar series, Mint on the network of their choice, and store the generated NFTs on the IPFS.

Inspiration

We wanted to create a tool that simplifies the process for an artist to get into the NFT space

What it does

Using the tool, artists can create their own generative artwork without the need of any developer or writing any code. The art is directly minted on the Rarible protocol and saved on the IPFS and Filecoin blockchain.

How we built it

We used Unity3D to build the tool and connect it to the Metamask wallet using the JS script bridge. All the procedural generation is done using shaders and intelligent layering. After it is done, we call the smart contract deployed and the art is minted on Rarible and saved on the IPFS. The art is displayed on the Rarible marketplace from which the artist can then sell the piece.

Challenges we ran into

Mixing multiple technologies had its own challenges but we found a way to bridge all of them. The important phase for us was to come up with a system so that we can automate everything. This meant that a gaming tool like Unity3D had to connect to the Metamask wallet and also send a transaction via the Smart contract to the Rarible protocol.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

The entire vertical slice is working. Creation, generation, saving, and mint.

What's next for NFT Tool

In phase 2 of the tool, artists can bring their own 2D and 3D assets, generate, mint on their choice of network, and deploy without needing any single line of code.
