# zk-Election
zk-Election is a cryptography-driven, privacy-preserving election framework that leverages the power of zk-SNARKs (Zero-Knowledge Succinct Non-Interactive Argument of Knowledge). It ensures secure and transparent voting while maintaining voter anonymity and data privacy, making it ideal for decentralized election systems.
## Features
### Privacy-Preserving Framework
Ensures voter confidentiality by leveraging zk-SNARKs with the Groth16 proving system, allowing secure election outcomes without revealing sensitive data.
### Efficient Zero-Knowledge Proofs
Advanced circuits written in Circom enable efficient proof generation for anonymous voting while ensuring verifiability and scalability.
### On-Chain Verification
Seamless integration of SnarkJS and Solidity for deploying a custom verifier.sol contract, ensuring robust cryptographic security and minimal gas costs for verifying zk-SNARK proofs.
### Decentralized Workflow
Designed a decentralized election workflow with a Next.js-powered frontend, showcasing cryptographic guarantees such as:
- Non-Repudiation: Votes cannot be denied by the voter once cast.
- Anonymity: Preserves voter identities while ensuring vote validity.
- Tamper-Proof Records: Guarantees secure and immutable voting records.
### 🛡️ Trustless and Transparent
Eliminates the need for trust by applying cutting-edge zk-SNARK protocols, ensuring election transparency, integrity, and security.
Refer to the official [Circom 2 documentation](https://docs.circom.io/getting-started/installation/) for a comprehensive guide on installing and compiling circuits, ensuring alignment with the latest standards and best practices.
