Conference Presentation

• The project was also presented at a renowned conference where it received recognition for its innovative approach and contribution to the field.
• The presentation showcased the key features and technical aspects of the Web-3.0 Music Player on Blockchain.

Technology Stack & Tools

• Solidity (Writing Smart Contract)
• Javascript (React & Testing)
• Ethers (Blockchain Interaction)
• Hardhat (Development Framework)
• Ipfs (Metadata storage)
• React routers (Navigational components)

Requirements For Initial Setup

• Install NodeJS, should work with any node version below 16.5.0
• Install Hardhat

Setting Up

1. Clone/Download the Repository

2. Install Dependencies:

$ cd music_nfts
$ npm install

3. Boot up local development blockchain

$ cd music_nfts
$ npx hardhat node

4. Connect development blockchain accounts to Metamask

• Copy private key of the addresses and import to Metamask
• Connect your metamask to hardhat blockchain, network 127.0.0.1:8545.
• If you have not added hardhat to the list of networks on your metamask, open up a browser, click the fox icon, then click the top center dropdown button that lists all the available networks then click add networks. A form should pop up. For the "Network Name" field enter "Hardhat". For the "New RPC URL" field enter "http://127.0.0.1:8545". For the chain ID enter "31337". Then click save.

5. Run deploy script to migrate smart contracts

npm run deploy

6. Run Tests

$ npx hardhat test

7. Launch Frontend

$ npm run start
