The problem FundFlow solves

Problem Solving with Decentralized Crowdfunding:

In a world where centralized crowdfunding platforms often face issues of trust, transparency, and accountability, our decentralized crowdfunding website emerges as a groundbreaking solution. Here's how it revolutionizes the crowdfunding landscape:

1. **Trust and Transparency :

   -Issue:Traditional crowdfunding platforms sometimes lack transparency, leaving backers uncertain about the progress of campaigns.
   -Solution: Our decentralized approach ensures complete transparency through blockchain technology. Every contribution and campaign update is securely recorded and accessible, fostering trust among backers.

2. Accountability through Community Consensus:

   • Issue: Campaign owners may not always fulfill their promises, leading to dissatisfaction among backers.
   • Solution:Introducing a voting mechanism allows the community to collectively decide whether the campaign owner has met their targets. If not, funds are automatically refunded, ensuring accountability and protecting backers.

3. Reduced Intermediary Risks:

   • Issue:Centralized crowdfunding platforms are susceptible to hacking and mismanagement, putting user funds at risk.
   • Solution:Our decentralized model eliminates the need for a central authority, reducing the risk of hacking and minimizing the possibility of mismanagement. Smart contracts handle the entire process, ensuring the security of user funds.

4. Global Accessibility:

   • Issue:Some regions face restrictions on accessing crowdfunding platforms, limiting opportunities for creators and backers.
   • Solution:Decentralization means our platform is accessible globally, empowering creators and backers from any part of the world to connect and support innovative projects without geographic limitations.

Challenges we ran into

During the development of our decentralized crowdfunding platform, we encountered significant challenges, particularly in the integration between the frontend and the backend components. Here's a detailed account of the hurdles we faced and how we successfully overcame them:

Frontend Complexity:

Challenge: The frontend was developed using HTML, CSS, and plain vanilla JavaScript. While this ensured a clean and modular design, it presented challenges when connecting to the backend.We used Ether.js that helped a lot but at lot of times we faced difficulty in syncronization and fetching the data from the backend and updating it real time on the website
