Documentation Writing Proposal for AirDao

Introduction

The proposal is to write a well-structured and comprehensive documentation that is essential to ensure seamless integration, enhance user experience, and drive developer's engagement. Having personally used and interacted with the network as a developer while deploying, verifying and testing smart contracts, I will deliver a detailed and user-friendly documentation for AirDao, designed to cater to both novice and experienced users.

Scope of Services

  1. Developer Documentation: The dev docs will include:

    • Getting Started Guides:
      • Initial Setup: Step-by-step instructions for setting up a development environment, including IDE configuration, installing necessary dependencies, and using tools like Truffle, Hardhat, or Remix.
      • Hello World Example: A basic tutorial to deploy a simple smart contract, illustrating the deployment process and basic interactions.
      • Staking Smart Contract deployment tutorial: A basic tutorial to deploy a simple smart contract, illustrating the deployment process and basic interactions.
      • Advanced Setup: Detailed setup for advanced development environments using Docker, integrating with CI/CD pipelines, and managing different network environments (testnet, mainnet).
      • List of necessary addresses: List of addresses such as stablecoin addresses, AMB address etc.
    • Smart Contract Development:
      • Writing Smart Contracts: Comprehensive guides on writing smart contracts in Solidity, covering syntax, structure, best practices, and common pitfalls.
      • Deployment and Testing: Instructions on deploying smart contracts using various tools, writing tests using frameworks like Truffle and Hardhat, and continuous deployment strategies.
      • Interacting with Contracts: Detailed tutorials on interacting with deployed smart contracts using web3.js or ethers.js, including real-world examples and use cases.
      • Security Considerations: Best practices for securing smart contracts, including recommendations for avoiding common attacks and pitfalls.
    • API Reference:
      • Comprehensive API Documentation: Detailed documentation of all available APIs, including method descriptions, parameter lists, return values, and example requests and responses.
      • Interactive API Explorer: An interactive tool for developers to test API calls directly within the documentation, providing immediate feedback and examples.
    • Tutorials:
      • Token Creation: Step-by-step guide to creating and deploying ERC-20 and ERC-721 tokens, including detailed explanations of token standards.
      • Building dApps: Comprehensive tutorials on building decentralized applications (dApps), covering frontend integration with React, Angular, or Vue, and backend interactions with smart contracts.
      • Integration with External Services: Guides on integrating blockchain applications with external services such as IPFS for decentralized storage, oracles for real-world data integration, and payment gateways.

  2. User Documentation:

    • Overview of Blockchain Features:
      • Feature Breakdown: Detailed descriptions of the blockchain's unique features, such as consensus mechanisms, scalability solutions, and security measures.
      • Use Cases: Real-world examples of how these features can be leveraged in different industries, from finance to supply chain management.
    • Wallet Setup and Usage:
      • Creating Wallets: Step-by-step guides on creating and setting up wallets using popular tools like MetaMask, MyEtherWallet, and hardware wallets.
      • Managing Assets: Instructions on managing cryptocurrencies and tokens, including sending and receiving transactions, and monitoring balances.
