1inch near extension

his project is a comprehensive initiative designed to onboard a new developer into the blockchain ecosystem, specifically focusing on the NEAR Protocol, and to integrate it with advanced decentralized finance (DeFi) tools like 1inch's Fusion+.

Main Goals: Onboarding a New Developer to the Blockchain Ecosystem: The primary aim was to guide a new developer with no prior blockchain experience into the world of blockchain development. This includes providing a solid foundation of understanding the core principles of decentralized networks, smart contracts, and decentralized applications (dApps). The process involved building from scratch and exploring various blockchain components, making it approachable and beginner-friendly.

Learning How NEAR Blockchain Works and Interacting with Smart Contracts: The project focused heavily on teaching the inner workings of the NEAR blockchain, a high-performance, scalable protocol designed for decentralized applications. NEAR’s sharding, consensus mechanisms, and developer-friendly features such as low gas fees and high throughput were explored in-depth.

Integrating 1inch’s Fusion+ with NEAR: The final aspect of the project was the integration of 1inch, a decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregator, with NEAR using Fusion+, a feature of 1inch that provides a multi-chain, best-price aggregation for swapping tokens across supported networks.

however: we didint have time to finish it, even tho, it was an awesome introduction for my friend ^^

Technologies Used: NEAR Protocol: For smart contract development, transaction handling, and blockchain interactions.

1inch API/Fusion+: To enable token swaps with best price aggregation across multiple DEXes. Rust/AssemblyScript: For writing and deploying smart contracts on NEAR.
