## 🌟 The Story
At Inovus Labs, we've issued hundreds of certificates over the years for workshops, bootcamps, and events. But in a world where designing a fake certificate is just a few clicks away, we needed a stronger system. This project brings real **trust** to every credential issued, using blockchain technology to make each certificate **verifiable, tamper-proof, and permanent**.
For more information on the project, check out the [blog post](https://blog.inovuslabs.org) detailing the journey of building this project.
## 🚀 Features
* ✅ **Blockchain-based Trust** — Every certificate hash is stored immutably on-chain
* 🔐 **Decentralized Validation** — No central database needed for verification
* 📄 **Rich Metadata** — Includes recipient, event info, issuer, dates, etc.
* 🌐 **Optional IPFS Storage** — Store full metadata off-chain, verify by hash
* 🛠️ **Role-based Access** — Manage certificate hashes securely (admin-ready)
## 🛠 Tech Stack
* **Solidity** — Smart contracts
* **Hardhat** — Ethereum dev environment
* **Polygon Mumbai** — Blockchain network (testnet)
* **IPFS (via Web3.Storage)** — Optional decentralized file storage
* **Node.js + Ethers.js** — Optional integration tooling
## 🔮 Future Enhancements
* 🌐 Live public certificate verification page
* 🔐 Admin dashboard with access control
* 📱 QR code support for physical certificates
* ⛓️ Mainnet support (Polygon / Celo)
