9 months ago Hello, just a heads up I have added an additional team member to the grant request.
We have also setup a more detailed project management board available at https://projects.forge4flow.com/projects/forge4flow-core/work_packages?query_id=30

9 months ago Hello,
I have made some changes to the grant proposal to reflect a change in direction we are taking with event monitoring. These changes replaces Alerts4Flow with Functions4Flow.
Forge4Flow is born out of an innate understanding of these pain points and aims to become a dectralized development platform, the DAO itself is formed under Wyoming's Decentralized Autonomous Organization LLC Supliment with a token and governance plan in works ensure the platform is governed by both the developers and the Flow ecosystem as a whole.
Auth4Flow: Blockchain-based authentication lacks comprehensive user verification, requiring custom solutions for advanced functionalities and role-based access control. Transitioning to a Web3 environment increases the complexity of achieving secure user access control, both within DApps and when interacting with Web2 technologies. Auth4Flow offers a simple, open-source Identity and Access Management platform that simplifies Web3 authentication. It supports various authorization schemes, including RBAC, FGAC, ReBAC, and NFT/FT gated access.
Functions4Flow (evolved from Alerts4Flow): Building upon the foundation of Alerts4Flow, Functions4Flow offers a dynamic serverless platform for the Flow blockchain. It enables developers to deploy NodeJS and Go functions triggered by both time-based schedules or real-time Flow blockchain events. This system facilitates a wide array of dApp functionalities, from automated tasks to responsive blockchain interactions. As we expand, more programming languages will be supported, further establishing Functions4Flow as a versatile tool for dApp development.

Description
Problem statement
Proposed solution
Forge4Flow is born out of an innate understanding of these pain points and aims to become a dectralized development platform, the DAO itself is formed under Wyoming's Decentralized Autonomous Organization LLC Supliment with a token and governance plan in works ensure the platform is governed by both the developers and the Flow ecosystem as a whole.
Auth4Flow: Blockchain-based authentication lacks comprehensive user verification, requiring custom solutions for advanced functionalities and role-based access control. Transitioning to a Web3 environment increases the complexity of achieving secure user access control, both within DApps and when interacting with Web2 technologies. Auth4Flow offers a simple, open-source Identity and Access Management platform that simplifies Web3 authentication. It supports various authorization schemes, including RBAC, FGAC, ReBAC, and NFT/FT gated access.
Alerts4Flow: One of the biggest advanges of the Flow Blockchain is it's ability to emmit events from within contracts, thus allowing developers to react to changes as they occur. Unfortuantley tooling in this area has not been widely developed. With Alerts4Flow developers can easily setup Event Monitors to receive alerts in realtime using Websockets or Webhooks.
