Section · Onchain

The primitive.

full primer →

Every seasonal collection storage artefact is pinned to IPFS through Pinata; fashion designers get a permanent CID and a public gateway preview instead of a fragile cloud URL.

Why this primitivePinata ensures permanent, verifiable storage of complex collection data.

Kernel
a Pinata JWT upload that pins images / JSON / manifests to IPFS and returns a permanent CID
Drives the UI as
a 'pinned to IPFS' chip with the CID and an ipfs.io gateway preview

Build "Capsule Catalog" in ONE Lovable message. Single-page demo.

CONCEPT
Store entire seasonal lookbooks as immutable IPFS manifests for authenticity.
Discipline: Fashion & Textile Design (seasonal collection storage).
Onchain primitive: IPFS via Pinata. Why this primitive: Pinata ensures permanent, verifiable storage of complex collection data.

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 Sepolia, verified on Etherscan.
- 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:{createOnLogin:'users-without-wallets'},
                defaultChain:{ id: 11155111, name:'Sepolia' } }}>
- All txs via Privy `useSendTransaction` with `{ sponsor: true }` (zero-gas for the user).
- 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-toolbox` AND `@nomicfoundation/hardhat-verify@latest`
  (>=3.x — older versions still hit Etherscan v1 and fail with
  "You are using a deprecated V1 endpoint, switch to Etherscan API V2").
- hardhat.config.cjs MUST use the Etherscan v2 single-key shape (NOT the per-network map):
    require("@nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox");
    require("@nomicfoundation/hardhat-verify");
    module.exports = {
      solidity: { version: "0.8.24", settings: { optimizer: { enabled: true, runs: 200 } } },
      networks: { sepolia: {
        url: process.env.SEPOLIA_RPC_URL,                       // Alchemy HTTPS endpoint, REQUIRED
        accounts: [process.env.METAMASK_PRIVATE_KEY.startsWith("0x")
          ? process.env.METAMASK_PRIVATE_KEY : "0x" + process.env.METAMASK_PRIVATE_KEY],
        chainId: 11155111,
      } },
      etherscan: { apiKey: process.env.ETHERSCAN_API_KEY },   // single string, NOT { sepolia: ... }
      sourcify: { enabled: false },                            // silences the v2.x prompt
    };
- Deploy: `npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.cjs --network sepolia`.
- Verify (run RIGHT AFTER deploy, no constructor args for these contracts):
  `npx hardhat verify --network sepolia <address>`
  On success Etherscan returns "Successfully verified contract … on the block explorer"
  and the source becomes readable at
  `https://sepolia.etherscan.io/address/<address>#code`.
- Frontend reads: create a viem public client with the Alchemy URL too —
  `createPublicClient({ chain: sepolia, transport: http(import.meta.env.VITE_SEPOLIA_RPC_URL) })`.
  Expose SEPOLIA_RPC_URL to the client by also setting VITE_SEPOLIA_RPC_URL to the same value.
- Write the deployed address to `src/data/contract.json` so the UI links to
  `https://sepolia.etherscan.io/address/<address>`.

USER FLOW
1. Land on page -> 'Sign in with Google' (Privy) -> embedded wallet auto-provisioned.
2. On submit, pin the seasonal collection storage artefact to Pinata, then call `log(cid)` on the contract via Privy sponsored tx. Render the CID, IPFS gateway preview, and Etherscan tx link.
3. Footer renders: "Built during the Creative AI & Quantum Hackathon organised by StreetKode Fam during Indian Krump Festival 14"

REQUIRED SECRETS (Lovable -> Project Settings -> Secrets):
