Inspiration

In covid times due to supply shortages of vegetables and fruits, I and my friend wanted to start selling vegetables from my home online for safety concerns. At that time we have listed the shop in third party online delivery apps for the digital presence, And realized a huge portion of our profits were going into the delivery apps in the name of commissions from our side, price variation from the customer side also, and faced manipulation in the app like showing paid shops more to the customer with fake ratings, even though we deliver good quality products ours doesn't show up in the peak time. And delivery apps hesitate to share our customer details as well and they won't let us talk with our customers directly realizing my shop is fully controlled by them. After the pandemic, we started to talk with more different businesses and shops that require delivery apps to sustain digital business and heard everyone has the same issue of digital ownership and manipulation by not connecting customers directly with businesses. So realizing the gap between the customer and business in the digital space and Digital business ownership we came up with OneCape | Your Shop, Your Power.

What it does

We built OneCape not only for deliverable products but for all businesses to thrive in the digital space by giving back their digital ownership. We wanted to achieve using blockchain. So we started our product with web2 to get users along and slowly convert them to web3 by building customer community and storing the digital ownership in the blockchain. With the help of OneCape, both businesses and customers will get the benefits. Onecape Web3 E-commerce app focuses on making it as much independent of the personal data of the users as possible So that no shop can manipulate those data. It also focuses on decentralizing the entire authority of data consumption so that no payment can be prevented and no shop can be prioritized. Also, using web3 will be round the clock, and unlike web2 where servers crash, In this designated system there will no failure points. This approach eliminates the entire middleman approach as well as treats each and every shop(node) equally regardless of their financial stability. Hence, The idea of introducing E-commerce as web3 using chainlink, filecoin would make the whole customer experience trustworthy and will ensure no fishy business done with the personal data of consumers.

How we built it

We built the Web 3 version of the product on top of the Web 2 product which we already developed. We made sure to include the following tech stack while developing the product React, React-Native, MongoDB, Mongoose, Nodejs, GraphQL, Etherjs, Hardhat, Moralis, Filecoin, Solidity, AWS, Blockchain, Javascript, Git, Trello, Chainlink, Polygon

Challenges we ran into

We mostly ran into backend issues and Blockchain integration problems. But it was fun to clear all those and deploy our idea successfully

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of the fact that a web2 e-commerce app have been deployed and the fact we overcame a lot of problems.

What we learned

The whole concept is to make the E-commerce experience to be decentralized by converting all features from the existing WEB2 to WEB3 to eliminate data manipulation and make it free of personal data. We learnt new implementation methods of technologies such as Filecoin, Solidity, EtherJS, Chainlink, Polygon etc
