Challenges we ran into Choosing the right tech stack: This was a major challenge our team faced as there were so many technologies that can be used to develop the web application. All the members of our team are great researchers and spent a lot of their time choosing the right technologies to be implemented. Smart Contract development: Smart contract development was a bit challenging as it requires deep analysis of all the functionality that the application can provide, we needed to ensure that the blockchain network is set up correctly and that smart contracts are coded correctly. We took the help of a few online resources to develop the smart contract.
