What this skill does

Overview

This skill gives you starting code for decentralized finance (DeFi) apps. DeFi means money services that run as programs on a blockchain instead of through a bank. The templates are written in Solidity, the main language for these blockchain programs, called smart contracts.

Key Features

  • Start from a staking contract that pays users rewards over time for locking up their tokens.
  • Build a simple token swap pool where people trade two tokens and pay a small fee.
  • Let people add tokens to a swap pool and later take their share back out.
  • Get pointers for adding community voting tokens and instant loans that must be repaid in one step.
  • Find more templates and worked examples in references/details.md.

Who is this for?

This is for developers who are building finance apps on a blockchain and want a solid starting point. It helps when you want to see how common pieces like staking and swapping fit together. You should still review and test the code carefully before using it with real money.
