Allowing artists, players, and game designers to seamlessly interact with Autonomous Worlds through leveraging Optimism, NFT.Storage, and Web3.Storage in seconds with no prior knowledge needed, across all platforms (Web, Mobile, SMS, Alexa)
When I first started this hackathon, I was trying to learn more about Optimism. So I searched up "How to mint NFTs on Optimism". The first video that popped up was a 36 minute tutorial (https://youtu.be/-kcrQKA-ZLk?t=1253) that came with a 20 page guide (https://ankr.hashnode.dev/deploy-and-mint-a-cryptokitties-like-nft-with-erc-721-smart-contract).
I thought if I am put off by this tutorial as an avid hacker, how are everyday people supposed to interact with Optimism?
That's why I created AutoPal - the easiest way to mint NFTs on Optimism and Upload to NFT.Storage and Web3.Storage in Seconds across Desktop, Web, Mobile, SMS, Amazon Alexa. I want to make blockchain as easy and accessible as possible to all.
This project uses Svelte for the frontend, OpenAI for NLP parsing and response generation, Voiceflow to build the chatbot flow, leverages Verbwire SDK to mint NFTs on Optimism and Optimism-goerli, and leverages NFT.Storage and Web3.Storage API to upload files to be stored on IPFS. This was my first working with both Optimism and NFT.Storage and Web3.Storage, so reading and learning more about both technologies was super intimidating at first and also very interesting,
