full primer →The primitive.
Fashion designers mint each zero-waste design as a TRC-721 token on Tron Shasta pointing at an IPFS CID, so authorship and timestamp are provable from a single Tronscan link.
Why this primitiveImmutable provenance mints validate zero-waste design authenticity and ownership.
Kernel
a TRC-721 contract on Shasta that mints a creator-owned token pointing at an IPFS CID, verified on Tronscan
Drives the UI as
a 'mint to claim authorship' button that returns the tokenId, base58 owner address, and Shasta Tronscan link
Required keys.
TRONGRID_API_KEY

CONCEPT
Mint NFTs proving zero-waste garment designs for fashion sustainability verification.
Discipline: Fashion & Textile Design (zero-waste design).
Onchain primitive: NFT provenance mint. Why this primitive: Immutable provenance mints validate zero-waste design authenticity and ownership.
5-CREDIT BUDGET (HARD LIMIT):
- ONE single-page app. No router, no Lovable Cloud, no database, no auth flows beyond Privy drop-in.
- ONE Solidity contract, <=80 lines, deployed to Shasta, verified on Tronscan.
- Privy is always the auth + signing layer (Google login, embedded Tron wallet, raw-hash sign). It does NOT sponsor gas.
- Transactions are built and broadcast via TronGrid Shasta (`/api/public/tron-build` + `/api/public/tron-sponsor`). Shasta’s free daily bandwidth covers gas for small tx like `log(string)` — no TRX is paid, no relayer sponsors it.
- Pinata/IPFS only if the idea genuinely needs to store a file or metadata.
- At most ONE AI call per user action (use Lovable AI Gateway with LOVABLE_API_KEY if AI is part of the idea).
- Skip tests, skip CI, skip docs pages. Ship the demo, nothing else.
STACK
- React + Vite single page (the index route).
- SSR-safe Privy mount is mandatory. Never import @privy-io/react-auth at
module scope of a route file — it crashes SSR. Use
lazy(() => import('./privy-client-entry')) inside <ClientOnly> + <Suspense>,
and put <PrivyProvider> only inside privy-client-entry.tsx.
- Privy Tron support is TIER-2 raw-sign (docs: https://docs.privy.io/recipes/tron/transatron).
PrivyProvider config:
<PrivyProvider appId={import.meta.env.VITE_PRIVY_APP_ID}
config={{ loginMethods:['google','email'],
appearance:{ theme:'dark' } }}>
- Read (or auto-create) the embedded Tron wallet via
`useCreateWallet({ chainType:'tron' })` and read the base58 address off
the resulting wallet. Addresses are base58 (T-prefixed), NOT hex.
- SHASTA RPC RULE (critical): use TronGrid Shasta
`https://api.shasta.trongrid.io` for BOTH transaction build AND
broadcast, with header `TRON-PRO-API-KEY: process.env.TRONGRID_API_KEY`
on every request. Do NOT hit `api.transatron.io` on Shasta — that
endpoint is mainnet-only and returns `Smart contract is not exist.` for
a live Shasta contract, which surfaces in the UI as `build failed
(500)`. Transatron sponsorship is a mainnet swap; on Shasta a fresh
account’s free daily bandwidth (~600) covers a small `log(string)`
event without any sponsor.
- Two server routes, both under `src/routes/api/public/` (auth-bypass
prefix), both constructing TronWeb the same way:
import { TronWeb, providers } from 'tronweb';
const SHASTA_RPC = 'https://api.shasta.trongrid.io';
const headers = { 'TRON-PRO-API-KEY': process.env.TRONGRID_API_KEY };
const tronWeb = new TronWeb({
fullNode: new providers.HttpProvider(SHASTA_RPC, 60_000, '', '', headers),
solidityNode: new providers.HttpProvider(SHASTA_RPC, 60_000, '', '', headers),
eventServer: new providers.HttpProvider(SHASTA_RPC, 60_000, '', '', headers),
});
1. POST /api/public/tron-build → builds the unsigned tx with
`triggerSmartContract(contractHex, 'log(string)', { feeLimit }, [...], ownerHex)`
and returns `{ transaction, txId: transaction.txID }`.
2. POST /api/public/tron-sponsor → attaches the recovery byte to
the user’s signature (try `1b`, fall back to `1c` by checking
`tronWeb.trx.ecRecover(signed) === walletAddress`) and broadcasts
via `tronWeb.fullNode.request('wallet/broadcasttransaction',
signed, 'post')`. Same TronGrid host — no Transatron on Shasta.
- Client signs the `txID` with Privy’s raw signer (not sendTransaction):
import { useSignRawHash } from '@privy-io/react-auth/extended-chains';
const { signature } = await signRawHash({
address: tronAddress, chainType: 'tron',
hash: (txId.startsWith('0x') ? txId : '0x' + txId) as `0x${string}`,
});
// POST { walletAddress, signature, transaction } to /api/public/tron-sponsor
- Do NOT set `chainId` (Tron has no numeric EVM chainId). Do NOT reuse
viem’s `sepolia`/`mainnet` chain objects. Do NOT add ZeroDev /
SmartWalletsProvider / a paymaster URL — EVM-only concepts.
- TronBox in /contracts (kept outside the Vite bundle). Install
`tronbox` (>=4.x). Solidity 0.8.x only (TVM caps at ~0.8.23 — do NOT
bump above 0.8.20 for safety).
- tronbox-config.js:
module.exports = {
networks: {
shasta: {
privateKey: process.env.TRON_PRIVATE_KEY,
userFeePercentage: 100,
feeLimit: 1000_000_000,
fullHost: 'https://api.shasta.trongrid.io',
network_id: '2',
headers: { 'TRON-PRO-API-KEY': process.env.TRONGRID_API_KEY },
},
},
compilers: { solc: { version: '0.8.20' } },
};
- Deploy: `tronbox migrate --network shasta`.
- Verify: upload source at `https://shasta.tronscan.org/#/contracts/verify`
(needs a reCAPTCHA — cannot be scripted). If TRONSCAN_API_KEY is set
you may POST multipart to `https://apilist.tronscanapi.com/api/solidity/verify`.
- Write the deployed base58 address to `src/data/contract.json` so the UI
links to `https://shasta.tronscan.org/#/contract/<address>`.

USER FLOW
1. Land on page -> 'Sign in with Google' (Privy) -> embedded wallet auto-provisioned.
2. After the user creates a zero-waste design artefact, pin the file to IPFS via Pinata, then call `mint(cid)` on the deployed contract through Privy's sponsored transaction. Show tokenId, IPFS preview (`https://gateway.pinata.cloud/ipfs/<cid>`), and Tronscan mint-tx link.
3. Footer renders: "Built during the Creative AI & Quantum Hackathon organised by StreetKode Fam during Indian Krump Festival 14"
