Build a Passkey Powered Guestbook Dapp

This section walks you through designing and building a decentralized application (dapp) that interacts with a smart contract guestbook, allowing users to read and write public messages. This tutorial also implements a passkey-powered smart wallet for user authentication.

📄️ Overview

In this tutorial, we'll walk you through building an old-timey internet guestbook! (Trust me, they were all the rage back in the day.) We'll be examining how the project is constructed, starting with the smart contract. Then, we'll turn that deployed smart contract into a "bindings package," allowing us to seamlessly integrate it into our frontend project. To get our users authenticated, we'll be using Stellar's new passkeys capability and giving each of our users their very own smart wallet. As a bonus, this guestbook is already a usable project (on Testnet) you can experiment with and use right now! After this tutorial, you'll have a solid understanding of how smart contracts and web applications can work together in harmony. You'll also have practical tools and examples for how you might integrate passkey-powered smart wallets into your own projects.
