This project is a comprehensive voting system built on the Solana blockchain, utilizing Rust for smart contract development, Node.js for the backend, and React.js for the frontend. It allows users to create voting topics, cast votes, and view vote counts.
To run this example you will need to install:
Once you've completed the installation run the following commands to configure your machine for local development:
solana-keygen new
solana config set --url localhost
solana config set -k ~/.config/solana/id.json
These two commands create Solana config files in ~/.config/solana/
which solana command line tools will read in to determine what cluster to connect to and what keypair to use.
Having done that run a local Solana validator by running:
solana-test-validator
Check for the anchor version by running
anchor-cli 0.29.0
To build the Solana program we need to run
anchor build
Test the Solana program by running
npm install
anchor test
Deploy your program by running
solana program deploy target/deploy/voting_dapp.so
Install node dependency
cd app
npm install
Open a new terminal and start the backend service
node backend/server.js
In another terminal start the frontend service
npm start
Now we can open http://localhost:3000
to interact with Solana program
