Project DevChain

Project Description :

A local blockchain system implemented in JavaScript and Node.js, designed to demonstrate the basic functionality of a blockchain.

Problem Statement

A local blockchain system that allows for the recording and verification of transactions The system should have the ability to mine new blocks and validate transactions through consensus algorithms The system should be able to demonstrate the basic functionality of a blockchain through the console

Idea/Solution

Create a local blockchain system using JavaScript that can simulate the basic functionality of a real blockchain Implement a console interface that allows users to interact with the blockchain, such as viewing the blockchain, adding transactions, and mining new blocks Implement consensus algorithms to validate transactions and mine new blocks

Tech Stack Used

JavaScript Node.js

Features

Recording and verification of transactions Mining of new blocks through consensus algorithms Console interface for interacting with the blockchain Display of current blockchain state Validation of transactions

Getting Started

Clone the repository

Copy code

git clone https://github.com/DevSwayam/DevChain.git

Install the dependencies

npm install

Start the blockchain

node main.js

Interact with the blockchain through the console

Example Use Case

Start the blockchain by running node main.js

The console will display the current state of the blockchain

Add a new transaction by typing addTransaction in the console and following the prompts

Mine a new block by typing mine in the console

The console will display the updated state of the blockchain, including the newly mined block and the added transaction

Note

This project is for demonstration purposes only and is not intended for use in a production environment.

Future Work

Implement advanced features such as smart contract, mining, and consensus algorithms

Integrate the blockchain with real-world applications

Explore other JavaScript libraries or frameworks to implement the blockchain
