full primer →The primitive.
Fashion designers mint each brand identity as an ERC-721 token on Sepolia pointing at an IPFS CID, so authorship and timestamp are provable from a single Etherscan link.
Why this primitiveERC-721 minting immutably encodes brand provenance onchain and on IPFS.
Kernel
an ERC-721 contract on Polygon Amoy that mints a creator-owned token pointing at an IPFS CID, verified on PolygonScan
Drives the UI as
a 'mint to claim authorship' button that returns the tokenId, owner address, and PolygonScan link
Required keys.

CONCEPT
Create unique NFTs representing brand values and design DNA to protect brand authenticity.
Discipline: Fashion & Textile Design (brand identity).
Onchain primitive: NFT provenance mint. Why this primitive: ERC-721 minting immutably encodes brand provenance onchain and on IPFS.
5-CREDIT BUDGET (HARD LIMIT):
- ONE single-page app. No router, no Lovable Cloud, no database, no auth flows beyond Privy drop-in.
- ONE Solidity contract, <=80 lines, deployed to Polygon Amoy (chainId 80002), verified on PolygonScan.
- Privy is always the auth + sponsored-tx layer (Google login, embedded wallet).
- Pinata/IPFS only if the idea genuinely needs to store a file or metadata.
- At most ONE AI call per user action (use Lovable AI Gateway with LOVABLE_API_KEY if AI is part of the idea).
- Skip tests, skip CI, skip docs pages. Ship the demo, nothing else.
STACK
- React + Vite single page (the index route).
- Privy embedded wallet wraps `<App />` in src/main.tsx:
<PrivyProvider appId={import.meta.env.VITE_PRIVY_APP_ID}
config={{ loginMethods:['google'], embeddedWallets:{ethereum:{createOnLogin:'users-without-wallets'}},
defaultChain:{ id: 80002, name:'Polygon Amoy' } }}>
SPONSORED TX (required — zero-gas UX):
- Get the embedded wallet: `const { wallets } = useWallets(); const embedded = wallets.find(w => w.walletClientType === 'privy');`
- Send with BOTH `address` and `sponsor: true`, otherwise Privy falls back to user-paid and pops "Add funds on Polygon Amoy":
const { sendTransaction } = useSendTransaction();
await sendTransaction(
{ to: CONTRACT_ADDRESS, data, chainId: 80002 },
{ address: embedded.address, sponsor: true },
);
- `sponsor: true` alone is not enough — the Privy dashboard sponsorship policy must be enabled for Polygon Amoy (see PRIVY DASHBOARD SETUP).
PRIVY DASHBOARD SETUP (one-time, at https://dashboard.privy.io for the app matching PRIVY_APP_ID):
1. Gas Sponsorship -> Add chain -> Polygon Amoy (chainId 80002).
2. Toggle "App pays" for that chain.
3. Enable "Allow transactions from the client".
4. Fund the sponsorship balance with a small amount of MATIC on Amoy (Privy shows the deposit address).
Without these four steps every `sponsor: true` call falls back to user-paid gas.
- src/lib/pinata.ts uploads via `fetch('https://api.pinata.cloud/pinning/pinFileToIPFS', { method:'POST', headers:{ Authorization: `Bearer ${import.meta.env.VITE_PINATA_JWT}` }, body: fd })`.
- Hardhat in /contracts (kept outside the Vite bundle). Install
`@nomicfoundation/hardhat-ethers` AND `@nomicfoundation/hardhat-verify` (>=2.x).
DO NOT install `@nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox` — it drags Hardhat 3 peers.
- hardhat.config.cjs — Polygon Amoy + Etherscan v2 single-key:
require("@nomicfoundation/hardhat-ethers");
require("@nomicfoundation/hardhat-verify");
const pk = process.env.METAMASK_PRIVATE_KEY;
module.exports = {
solidity: { version: "0.8.24", settings: { optimizer: { enabled: true, runs: 200 } } },
networks: { polygonAmoy: {
url: process.env.POLYGON_AMOY_RPC_URL || "https://rpc-amoy.polygon.technology",
accounts: pk ? [pk.startsWith("0x") ? pk : "0x" + pk] : [],
chainId: 80002,
} },
etherscan: {
apiKey: process.env.ETHERSCAN_API_KEY, // single Etherscan v2 key covers PolygonScan
customChains: [{
network: "polygonAmoy", chainId: 80002,
urls: {
apiURL: "https://api.etherscan.io/v2/api?chainid=80002",
browserURL: "https://amoy.polygonscan.com",
},
}],
},
sourcify: { enabled: false },
};
- Deploy: `npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.cjs --network polygonAmoy`.
- Verify (run RIGHT AFTER deploy, no constructor args for these contracts):
`npx hardhat verify --network polygonAmoy <address>`
On success it prints "Successfully verified contract … on the block explorer"
and the source becomes readable at
`https://amoy.polygonscan.com/address/<address>#code`.
- Frontend reads: create a viem public client with the Polygon Amoy RPC too —
`createPublicClient({ chain: polygonAmoy, transport: http(import.meta.env.VITE_POLYGON_AMOY_RPC_URL) })`
(import `polygonAmoy` from `viem/chains`).
Expose the RPC to the client by also setting VITE_POLYGON_AMOY_RPC_URL to the same value.
- Write the deployed address to `src/data/contract.json` so the UI links to
`https://amoy.polygonscan.com/address/<address>`.

USER FLOW
1. Land on page -> 'Sign in with Google' (Privy) -> embedded wallet auto-provisioned on Polygon Amoy.
2. After the user creates a brand identity artefact, pin the file to IPFS via Pinata, then call `mint(cid)` on the deployed contract through Privy's sponsored transaction. Show tokenId, IPFS preview (`https://gateway.pinata.cloud/ipfs/<cid>`), and PolygonScan mint-tx link.
3. Footer renders: "Built during the Creative AI & Quantum Hackathon organised by StreetKode Fam during Indian Krump Festival 14"
