Auctions are widely used in buying and selling processes, and it's used a lot in different cases.
We built an English auction mechanism smart contract using solidity which can be added to NFT marketplaces besides buying with a fixed price, this makes UX for buyers more attractive.
We used blockchain technology, the Ethereum network, and smart contract development technology to achieve our goal.
The smart contract is written in solidity, and we used JS/TS to test and interact with the contract.
The smart contract is built using hardhat framework, ethersjs, and some other packages and dependencies that speed up in development process.
This is an example of how to run the smart contract locally on your computer.
You need to check if nodejs and npm are installed on your computer first.
npm --versionnode --versionIf you don't have node, you can install it from there official website
Below is an example of how to start interacting with the smart contract locally.
- Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/Al-Qa-qa/english-auction.git
- Install NPM packages (remember to move to the directory
english-auctionfirst)npm install
- Code installed successfully, you can start testing it.
You can interact with the smart contract on the local network now.

We used some web services, open-source projects, and packages that help us in our development process, which will be listed down below.
We would like to apologize if we used a free package or service and forgot to mention it.
