Build your application based on one of the following categories: 🎮 Gaming 🪪 Identity & Authentication 💰 ZeFi (zero-knowledge DeFi) 🤖 zkML (zero-knowledge machine learning) 🗳️ Voting & Governance All application ideas are valid. We are primarily looking for feature-complete dApps that have a user interface. We understand this is a hackathon, so even a simple application is ok. Please note that Aleo is still in Testnet. This means some functionality is still under development. It is essential to consider this when building your application. **Below you can find a list of the features/functionality that is currently in progress**: - Multi-execution transaction types - Arrays (in the Leo programming language) - AleoBFT (consensus mechanism) ## Submission Requirements: 1. Your GitHub repo must be public and contain a .leo and/or .aleo file 2. Your repo must contain a folder with the following information: - Description of your application and why it would add value to the ecosystem - Instructions on how to execute your application. - A description of parameters, functions, etc. This should live in a README - You must provide a demo video. 3. Your submission should have some minimum UI/UX 4. Please provide information on any challenges or roadblocks you faced ## Judging Criteria: 1. Novelty - How unique is the application? Does it not exist on Aleo currently? 2. User Experience - How easy is the application to understand and use? 3. Engineering - How well engineered is the dApp given Aleo's current state? 4. Functionality - What can you do with the application?
