This repository was created to fulfill the requirements of the Per Scholas capstone project. It is a simplified Reddit clone that uses Ethereum for user authentication. The project is currently deployed at ethrhub.xyz.
-
Authentication
- Unauthenticated users will be prompted to sign in using MetaMask.
- Returning users have their accounts stored in the database.
- New users are automatically added to the database upon their initial login. During account creation, the program checks ENS (Ethereum Name Service) for names that resolve to the authenticated address.
- Wherever applicable, ENS names are displayed in place of their resolved Ethereum addresses on the website.
-
Session and Access
- Once logged in, users receive a JWT that grants browsing and posting access for one hour.
-
