Project Description

Reputable is an easy-to-use form designed to empower verified humans to issue micro-credentials, creating a decentralized and dynamic credentialing system. These micro-credentials represent specific skills, achievements, or contributions, and are issued with a decay function that ensures their relevance over time.

Key Features:

1.	Verified Issuers:
•	Only verified humans can issue micro-credentials, ensuring authenticity and trust within the system. Verification can be achieved through identity checks and integrations with World App.
2.	Micro-Credentials:
•	These are lightweight, specific, and verifiable records of achievement or skill. They enable a granular, modular approach to recognizing expertise or contributions, moving away from traditional, rigid certification models.
3.	Decay Function:
•	Each micro-credential includes a time-based decay function that gradually reduces its weight or validity over a predefined period. This encourages continuous learning and skill updates while reflecting the evolving nature of expertise and relevance.
4.Dynamic Reputation System:
•	Beyond individual credentials, the platform aggregates them into a dynamic reputation score for users, offering a real-time view of their credibility and expertise.

Use Cases:

•	Education: Teachers and mentors can issue micro-credentials for completed courses, projects, or milestones.
•	Workplace: Employers can recognize specific achievements, such as successful project completions or mastery of a new tool.
•	Communities: Community leaders can reward contributions like organizing events or providing technical support.
•	Freelancers and Creators: Clients can issue credentials for high-quality work delivered, building a trackable history of professional achievements.

Vision:

Reputable aims to redefine how society recognizes and rewards skills and contributions. By introducing a system where credentials evolve over time, the platform fosters a culture of continuous growth and accountability. It creates a future where micro-credentials not only enhance individual potential but also build collective trust and transparency in the knowledge economy.

How it's Made

This project is built as a mini app with MiniKit provided by the World App. The project is built with Next.js as the frontend and api layer, the database used is neo4j. The reason to choose a graph database is for future social graph building. The test is done using ngrok as test deployment platform and Eruda as logging solutions on the phone.
