Grant Category:
Core Development
Grant Description:
This grant proposal aims to fund the development of a Python module for AppData schema definitions, providing Python developers with easy access to AppData schemas used in the CowProtocol ecosystem. The module, named AppDataPy, will include Pythonic representations of AppData schemas and utilities, enabling developers to work with AppData schemas seamlessly using Python. AppDataPy will support Python 3.9+ versions and will follow the latest PEP standards and industry-standard practices. It will utilize tools such as mypy, Ruff, black, isort, and will be managed with a separate build tool like Poetry, Hatch, or PDM to ensure code quality, readability, and maintainability.
Grant Goals and Impact:
The primary goal of this grant is to create a robust and user-friendly Python module for AppData schema definitions. AppDataPy will empower Python developers to integrate AppData schemas into their applications effortlessly, thereby fostering interoperability and collaboration within the CowProtocol ecosystem. The successful execution of this grant will benefit users, developers, and the broader blockchain community by enhancing accessibility and enabling the development of innovative decentralized applications.
