This PR adds a comprehensive onchain voting demo to the Base demos collection, showcasing governance and democratic decision-making features in Base Mini Apps.

Changes Made:

New Demo: mini-apps/onchain-voting-demo/

  • Complete Mini App with 36 new files and 19,131 lines of code
  • Full-stack implementation using Next.js 15, TypeScript, and MiniKit
  • Interactive voting system with proposal creation and democratic governance

Demo Features:

Core Functionality:

  • 📝 Proposal Creation: Users can submit governance proposals with titles and descriptions
  • 🗳️ Interactive Voting: Yes/No/Abstain voting system with vote change capability
  • 📊 Real-time Results: Live vote counting with visual progress bars and percentages
  • ⏰ Proposal Lifecycle: Active/Passed/Failed/Executed status tracking
  • 📈 Statistics Dashboard: Overview of total proposals, active proposals, votes, and passed proposals

User Experience:

  • 📱 Mobile-First Design: Optimized for Base Mini App mobile experience
  • 🎨 Modern UI: Dark theme with gradients and glassmorphism effects
  • 📋 Tabbed Interface: Separate views for Active and All proposals
  • ✅ Form Validation: Comprehensive input validation with character limits
  • 💾 Local Persistence: Proposals and votes stored in localStorage for demo purposes

Technical Implementation:

  • ⚛️ React Components: Modular component architecture with TypeScript
  • 🎨 CSS Modules: Scoped styling with responsive design
  • 🔄 State Management: React hooks with localStorage integration
  • 📊 Data Visualization: Visual vote result bars and statistics
  • 🛡️ Input Validation: Client-side validation with error handling

Architecture:

Components Created:

  • VotingStats: Dashboard showing key voting metrics
  • ProposalCard: Individual proposal display with voting interface
  • CreateProposalForm: Modal form for proposal submission
  • Main Page: Tabbed interface managing proposal state

Key Files:

  • app/page.tsx - Main voting interface and state management
  • app/components/ - Reusable React components
  • README.md - Comprehensive setup and usage documentation
  • package.json - Updated with voting demo metadata

For Users:

  • Democratic Participation: Experience onchain voting mechanics
  • Proposal Creation: Learn how governance proposals are structured
  • Result Visualization: Understand vote aggregation and result display

Integration Ready:

Extensible Design:

  • Contract Integration: Patterns ready for smart contract integration
  • API Endpoints: Structure prepared for backend proposal management
  • Wallet Connection: MiniKit integration for user authentication
  • Scalable Architecture: Component-based design for feature expansion

Future Enhancements:

  • Smart contract integration for onchain proposals
  • Multi-signature proposal execution
  • Quadratic voting mechanisms
  • Proposal categorization and filtering
  • Historical voting analytics

Files Modified:

  • README.md - Added new demo to available demos table
  • mini-apps/onchain-voting-demo/ - New complete demo directory

Demo Structure:

Testing Instructions:

cd mini-apps/onchain-voting-demo
npm install
npm run dev
# Open http://localhost:3000

Impact:

For Base Ecosystem:

  • Governance Education: Teaches democratic participation onchain
  • Mini App Showcase: Demonstrates advanced Mini App capabilities
  • Developer Resources: Provides complete implementation reference
  • Community Engagement: Enables governance experimentation

For Coinbase Developer Platform:

  • MiniKit Integration: Showcases full MiniKit SDK usage
  • Base Chain Features: Demonstrates Base-specific development patterns
  • User Experience: Sets standards for Mini App user interfaces
