Typechain-Polkadot-Follow-Up Grant Application

[varex83]

Project Abstract

This Grant is a follow-up to the previous grant, W3F Grant Proposal.

We attempt to bring type safety to working with Polkadot contracts at the front-end side of development. Based on contracts ABIs' content, we generate corresponding runtime code in addition to TypeScript types definitions for the contracts, so that developers deal with pre-typed methods on the contract.

Generating such code automatically with CLI brings convenience to the dApps development, as well as speeds up required codebase updates, when contracts are changed in pre-release stage.

We have decided to add a new tool to the 3rd milestone that will help developers to easily integrate typechain to their projects, and it will also be compatible with Redspot (if redspot was used for compiling projects, you can just leave most of the things).

For which grant level are you applying?

• Level 1: Up to $10,000, 2 approvals
• Level 2: Up to $50,000, 3 approvals
• Level 3: Unlimited, 5 approvals (for > $100k Web3 Foundation Council approval)
