Base Voting dApp

This repository contains a simple voting smart contract that can be deployed on the Base Network using Remix IDE. Users can vote for candidates, and each wallet is allowed to vote once.

---

1. Open Remix IDE

• Go to https://remix.ethereum.org
• Connect your wallet (e.g., MetaMask) to the Base network (Testnet or Mainnet).

---

2. Create Contract File

• In Remix, create a new file:
  contracts/Voting.sol
• Paste the smart contract code from Voting.sol into the file.

---

3. Compile Contract

• Select Solidity compiler version: 0.8.20
• Enable optimization (optional)
• Click Compile Voting.sol

Ensure there are no compilation errors.

---

4. Deploy Contract

• Environment: Injected Web3
• Network: Base Testnet/Mainnet
• Constructor parameter: Array of candidate names, e.g.:

  ["Alice", "Bob", "Charlie"]

• Click Deploy and confirm the transaction in your wallet.

---

5. Interact with Contract

• Open the Deployed Contracts section in Remix:

Voting

• vote(candidateId) → Cast your vote for a candidate.
  • candidateId starts from 0.
  • Example: 0 for Alice, 1 for Bob, etc.

View Results

• getCandidate(candidateId) → Check the candidate's name and vote count.

Notes

• Each wallet can vote only once.
• This is a simple educational example for testing and learning.
• For production usage, consider:
  • Adding voting periods
  • Token-weighted voting
  • Security audits
