  1. Dapps Framework

Architectural Overview

The Dapps Framework adopts a layered architectural approach, designed to incorporate and transform existing Web3 applications into smart dApps. It takes into consideration various components that together shape a typical Web3 application and provides solutions to standardize and optimize them for smart dApps.

Existing Web3 App Architecture:

At the heart of a typical Web3 app lies the smart contract, the blockchain-powered back-end that handles the logic and storage of the app. These contracts are immutable and interact with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) to perform operations on the blockchain.

On the front-end, React, a popular JavaScript library, is commonly used for building user interfaces. React's component-based approach makes it easy to create complex UIs, allowing developers to create reusable components that manage their state.

To improve user experience, many Web3 applications leverage caching mechanisms using persistent storage. This helps decrease loading times and minimize costs by reducing the number of transactions made on the blockchain.

Lastly, these applications often rely on back-end services and APIs to fetch data from the blockchain or perform off-chain computations. These services can include The Graph for indexing blockchain data or Infura for interacting with Ethereum nodes.

Transforming to Smart dApps:

The transition from a typical Web3 app to a smart dApp involves leveraging the Dapps Framework to integrate and standardize these components into an interactive dApp. The framework provides developers with an effortless way to convert their existing dApps into a smart dApp. Dapps Framework takes their existing codebase and adds the functionality of a smart dApp to it.

After these components are integrated, developers are granted rights over the smart dApp for version control, ensuring they can update, maintain and improve their smart dApp over time. It's crucial to note that the rights to the smart dApp give developers an unprecedented level of control and flexibility to adapt to the needs of their users, iterate on their product, and stay relevant in the rapidly evolving Web3 space.

Incorporation of the Smart dApp Toolkit:

Once the existing dApp components are embedded into the smart dApp, developers have the choice to integrate the Smart dApp Toolkit. This is a suite of tools designed to enhance user engagement, improve monetization, and provide a more personalized user experience. Developers can choose to include tools like Unstoppable Messaging, Dapps Soul, Dapps Hermes, and Dapps Commerce depending on the specific needs of their dApps.

Dapps Sandbox and Testing:

After incorporating the necessary toolkit elements, developers can then test their newly created smart dApp in a controlled environment using the Dapps Sandbox. The Dapps Sandbox is a local simulator that allows developers to test and debug their smart dApp before they're deployed onto the blockchain. This encourages an iterative development approach, enabling developers to refine their dApps until they're ready to be deployed in production.

Renderization in React:

The smart dApps are designed to render using React, a popular JavaScript library for building user interfaces. This means that existing dApps, which are often built using React, can be smoothly transitioned to the smart dApp format. The familiar React environment simplifies the development process and ensures a smooth user experience when interacting with the smart dApp.

Validation and Standardization with the Dapps Framework:

As a final step, the Dapps Framework adds validation to the existing code and standardizes it. For instance, it removes any DOM loading, standardizes navigation, and adds other such best practices to the codebase. These measures ensure a high degree of compatibility with the Web3 environment and help in mitigating any potential issues during the migration process. This makes the transition to smart dApps seamless and ensures the dApp works efficiently in its new format.

This process illustrates the transition from an existing dApp to a smart dApp, integrating the Smart dApp Toolkit, testing in the Dapps Sandbox, and finally preparing for deployment. The Dapps Framework's validation and standardization processes ensure that the transition is smooth and efficient, resulting in a smart dApp ready to interact with users in the Web3 space.
