A mission driven Soroban Contract for charitable donations on Stellar
https://www.canva.com/design/DAGHuzwAgH4/kaf2p50rytWm13OfIP_ilA/edit
This project aims to create a developer-friendly solution that enables charitable donations using Stellar wallets within DeFi applications. The developed module is marketable, cross-border, modular, platform-agnostic, highly available, secure, and provides tangible real-world value that appeals to both crypto and non-crypto users.
The primary purpose of this project is to define a charity donation transaction with a focus on modularity, usability, scalability, and composability. The more effective the contract, the more developers will use it, ultimately reaching more users and bringing real-world value.
Understanding the scalability and performance of smart contracts is critical, especially in a cross-border context. Concepts like Big O Notation are essential for evaluating the efficiency of our algorithms within the smart contract. For a deeper understanding, you can explore the basics of Big O Notation in this article.
Additionally, ensuring that our smart contract remains maintainable and understandable is crucial. One way to assess this is by measuring Cyclomatic Complexity, which helps in determining the complexity of our code. While useful, it’s important to be aware of its limitations, as discussed in this blog post.
The goal is to create a multi-purpose, highly composable, minimalistic, and tangible smart contract that prioritizes both the user's and developer's experiences. This involves making decisions that enhance the overall usability and effectiveness of the dApp feature.
Users will have the option to round up their transaction fees and donate the rounded-up portion to a charity of their choice. The list of charities is predefined and sourced from Soroban smart contracts when transacting on the Stellar network.
