Project Description

OnlyDevs is a peer-to-peer live debugging platform — think Fiverr for micro coding help. Developers post quick debugging gigs with small bounties, connect instantly with mentors for live chat or video debugging, and pay only when the issue is solved.

The platform supports instant USDC or PayPal PYUSD payments, removing friction from traditional freelance sites. No scheduling, no long contracts — just real-time help, instant payouts, and transparent on-chain (or off-chain) proofs of work.

Ideal for devs stuck on small bugs, bootcamp learners, or mentors who want to earn from short sessions.

How it's Made

Smart contract payments use USDC (ERC-20) or PayPal PYUSD for flexibility. Wallets and spend-permission flows (via Base Account SDK / viem) allow zero-popup micro-payments on-chain. Backend uses Node.js + Prisma + PostgreSQL, with Redis for real-time gig matching and WebSockets for live chat. CI/CD via GitHub Actions + Vercel, and contracts deployed/tested using Hardhat. A few hacky bits: atomic USDC transfers with wallet_sendCalls, dynamic bounty scaling down to 0.0001 USDC, and hybrid off-chain receipts for PayPal PYUSD payouts.
