| # **EdgeSnap** | ||
|
|
||
| - **Team Name:** SoloCon | ||
| - **Payment Address:** 14XNJmoUzkvmh9cYoqG4axBRR4BWzWRbnFP79oiZgKu7V9bz (USDT/USDC, Polkadot AssetHub multisig) | ||
| - **Level:** 3 | ||
|
|
||
| ## **Project Overview 📄** | ||
|
|
||
| ### **Overview** | ||
|
|
||
| EdgeSnap serves as a pivotal Metamask Snap Store for all the Substrate chains, aligning with the vision of a multi-chain future without relying on multiple extensions. This initiative addresses a critical missing element in the substrate ecosystem by offering a unified and streamlined wallet experience for the end-users. | ||
|
|
||
| The current Metamask Snaps Directory offers one stop solution for all the Snap apps of different chains but it doesn't have a functionality to utilize the installed Snap apps for even a bare minimum functionality like transfer of the native tokens. This UX gap is something EdgeSnap is looking to fill by providing the install functionality through the Snap Store and the functionality to utilize the Snap apps through the Interactive UI at one place. | ||
|
|
||
| With 103 Substrate chains currently in the ecosystem, our goal is to develop and maintain the Snap Apps for each one of them. Moreover, we commit to assisting developers across the ecosystem in making their protocols Snap-compatible, fostering a more interconnected and user-friendly Substrate Ecosystem. | ||
|
|
||
| ### **Project Details** | ||
|
|
||
| **Flow chart:** | ||
|  | ||
|
|
||
| The EdgeSnap portal is segregated into two core components, namely the **Snap Store** and the **Interactive UI**. Users can access the 'Snap Store' to install the Universal Snap app or the individual chains' Snap apps as per their preference. The Universal Snap app is developed with power users in mind so they can explore the whole Polkadot/substrate ecosystem with just one Snap app. However, users who are looking to interact with a few specific chains can install the individual snap apps corresponding to those chains. In the later development stage, we are looking to add RPC switchers for individual snap apps. | ||
|
|
||
| Upon installing the Universal Snap app or any of the individual Snap apps, users can access the 'Interactive UI'. The Interactive UI offers basic functionalities like checking balance/address/public key, transferring the native token, and tracking recent transaction logs for all the substrate chains in one place. | ||
|
|
||
| **What's left to be done:** | ||
|
|
||
| - Support for [all the Polkadot/Kusama parachains and solochains](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1rfB3q5fYGtFMJX0UJQgmvT66srMaWShzEUDV-RFKUzU/edit?usp=sharing). | ||
| - Develop custom npm packages (substrate-snaps, metamask-substrate-adapter, metamask-substrate-types) | ||
| - Compilation flow changes for creation of individual chains' snap apps (alongside the existing Universal Snap app) | ||
| - UI changes for individual RPC switchers and compiling flow changes for corresponding precompiled snap apps | ||
| - UX and UI enhancements based on the feedback. | ||
| - Docs and walkthrough creation | ||
|
|
||
| **What's done(MVP):** | ||
|
|
||
| - Support for 3 additional chains already included | ||
| - Unified the snap installation and interaction UIs. | ||
| - Basic UI layout designing and development done | ||
| - Switched from deprecated packages (snaps-ui and snaps-types to snaps-sdk) | ||
| - The MVP is deployed on: [https://edgesnap.vercel.app](https://edgesnap.vercel.app/) | ||
|
|
||
| ### **Ecosystem Fit** | ||
|
|
||
| In addition to serving as the Substrate ecosystem's Snap Store, It also offers an intuitive user interface with fundamental operations. | ||
|
|
||
| Developed for production-level Relay chains, commercial Parachains, Common-good/ System Prachains, and Solochains, along with their respective protocols. The vision is to provide a single-stop service for the entire Substrate Ecosystem. | ||
|
|
||
| Metamask Snap App for Polkadot and Kusama is already out but it is not usable for other substrate chains (not even the AssetHub or BridgeHub). While some chains may have developed their own Snap app, the process of forking, auditing, and maintaining such applications independently can be resource-intensive. Pooling these efforts together through EdgeSnap not only saves considerable time and resources but also fosters a more efficient and collaborative standard for the whole Substrate ecosystem. | ||

| ### **Legal Structure** | ||
|
|
||
| We do not have a legal structure as we are contributors to a DAO. | ||
|
|
||
| ### **Team's experience** | ||
|
|
||
| - Over the past two years, we as solo contributors have been contributing to the Edgeware ecosystem across both technical and non-technical domains. From managing/updating the substrate runtime, core infra, ecosystem tools/apps, overseeing ledger upgrades to steering operations, business development, community engagement, social media management, and PR/strategy. Our multifaceted expertise has been consistently demonstrated and acknowledged by the Edgeware community through on-chain treasury proposals. With a wealth of experience, our team is well-equipped to expertly handle the proposed deliverables, ensuring a smooth and successful execution without any hiccups. | ||
| - The project came into existence during the EthForAll 2023 Hackathon, where contributors joined forces to contribute to its development. Subsequently, the project achieved success by winning the ConsenSys-sponsored track, highlighting its merit and utility. | ||
| - The contributors have been consistently engaged in numerous events and hackathons organized by EthGlobal and IBW, showcasing our commitment to active participation and continuous involvement in the blockchain community. | ||

| ## **Development Status 📖** | ||
|
|
||
| We have successfully achieved a fundamental Minimum Viable Product(MVP) that vividly showcases the operational framework of EdgeSnap featuring both the core components, Snap Store and Interactive UI. | ||
|
|
||
| ## | ||
|
|
||
| ## **Development Roadmap 🔩** | ||
|
|
||
| **Short Summary** | ||
|
|
||
| Through this grant, we intend to develop EdgeSnap from its current MVP stage to a comprehensive and fully supported project, tailored to meet the needs of all the Substrate chains. Our commitment extends beyond mere development - for the initial 9 months after complete development and integration, we will not impose any maintenance fees. | ||
|
|
||
| Furthermore, we are dedicated to offering integration services for all upcoming Substrate chains, fostering inclusivity and sustainability within the broader Substrate ecosystem. | ||
|
|
||
| The evolution from product to product as a service is the end goal for EdgeSnap. After milestone 1, we will start adding and/or will be keen to assist different [Ecosystem dApps](https://polkadot.network/ecosystem/dapps/) to add Snap support. | ||
|
|
||
| ### **Overview** | ||
|
|
||
| - **Total Estimated Duration:** 3 Months | ||
| - **Full-Time Equivalent (FTE):** 2.4 | ||
| - **Total Costs:** 120,000 USDT | ||
| - **Upfront** : 18,000 USDT | ||
|
|
||
| ### **Milestone 1 | Complete Back-end Flow** | ||
|
|
||
| - **Estimated duration:** 1 Month | ||
| - **FTE:** 2.4 | ||
| - **Costs:** 45,000 USDT | ||
|
|
||
| This implementation will showcase the working dynamics and final UI for a limited number of chains, providing users with a complete overview of the anticipated end product.
