This project was generated with Angular CLI version 7.3.5 (was 6.0.8)

I create Proof of Work blockchain test network and its frontend for educational purpose, so that I can better understand the blockchain technology.

This work is inspired by

• NodeJs
• Socket.io
• Redis
• Angular

Run npm install to install all dependency packages

Run npm run dev-front to build the static file. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory.

Run npm run dev for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:3000/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.

Run npm run dev-peer for a dev server. Navigate to the localhost with the port specified in the terminal. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files. It also syncs the chain via the redis channel

npm run test backend/tests/

Navigate to http://localhost:3000/wallet or other peer port specified in the terminal

Note that Every wallet holder can validate transaction(s) and earn the reward

Navigate to http://localhost:3000/faucet to request the testing money.

Navigate to http://localhost:3000/explorer/blocks to explore validated blocks

Navigate to http://localhost:3000/explorer/transactions to explore confirmed transactions

Navigate to http://localhost:3000/explorer/accounts to explore accounts' addresses and balances

• Implement new Reward logic that directly substract from sender 's transaction amount
• Implement Partial Amount Staking Logic on another branch
• Implement Light and Full node logic
• Implement Merkle Tree data structure to store transactions insteadof simple array
• Imprement Compressed public key as address
• Prevent User from validate the empty transaction pool object
• Limit one request per address per hour + captcha in faucet app
• Upload the Blockchain to the File System
• Load the Blockchain from the File System:
• Real-tine Transaction Pool Socket Updates
• Refactor with Ngrx to solve overdone API fetch on smaller component
• Upgrade to Angular 7 and use Scrolling Module(from Angular Material)
• Fresh Keys Per Transaction: create a new private key on every new transaction
• Implement a cluster of redis urls as the connections increase
• Refactor Backend with Go Programming
• Deployment using Docker

curl -H "Content-type:application/json" --data '{"data" : "Some data to the first block"}' http://localhost:3000/validate
