I am asking for funding for the recently published Polkadot Next.js Starter which I recently published and that I want to continue working on.

The starter template will allow frontend developers to quickly craft frontend applications for their projects and get started quickly in hackathons. I believe that it can greatly enable new and seasond developers to get started building apps on Polkadot.

Existing Features

  • Wallet connection components with
  • Next.js 15.x: A React framework for server-side rendering and static site generation.
  • Polkadot API: Integration with Polkadot's JavaScript API for blockchain interactions.
  • Tailwind CSS 4.0: Utility-first CSS framework for responsive design.
  • shadcn ui: Accessible UI components for building modern interfaces.
  • React Query: Data-fetching library for managing server state.
  • Next Themes: Theme management for light and dark modes.
  • 1 click deploy to vercel

The twitter post has gained some traction with 4500 views 65 likes and 16 reposts which clearly shows interest in the eco. It was already picked up by @inscnt for a XCM contract calls.

Planned Development

  • Integration into create-polkadot-app

  • add subwallet integration
  • add top menu that that works on mobile

Cost Breakdown

(at a hourly rate of 100USD)

I support this proposal! 🚀 The Polkadot Next.js Starter is a fantastic initiative that lowers the entry barrier for frontend developers and junior devs looking to build on Polkadot. Having a solid, easy-to-use starter template will accelerate development, especially for hackathons and new projects in the ecosystem.

Hey, nice initiative. Just regarding the wallet connection, you should really leverage what's been built already, and go for dot-connect. You get Ledger and WalletConnect out of the box https://dotconnect.dev
