Privacy-preserving identity protocol built on the Midnight Network.

ShadowTrace is a zero-knowledge identity interface for proving age eligibility without exposing the user's date of birth.

• Age Eligibility Proof: Proves age >= 18 from a local DOB witness.
• DOB Privacy: The date of birth is held in private state, used for proof generation, then discarded locally.
• Compact Smart Contract: contract/src/age-verify.compact asserts the age rule and stores only proof metadata.
• 1AM Wallet Flow: Connects to window.midnight['1am'] on preprod and uses the wallet-sponsored proof/balance/submit path.
• Midnight SDK Integration: Uses generated Compact assets from contract/src/managed/age-verify and serves ZK keys from public/zk/age-verify.

• Frontend: Next.js App Router with a client-side React dashboard in app/page.tsx.
• Styling: Global CSS in app/globals.css.
• Assets: Static assets in public/.
• Smart Contract: contract/src/age-verify.compact.
• Generated Contract: contract/src/managed/age-verify.
• ZK Assets: public/zk/age-verify.

Install dependencies:

npm install

Start the development server:

npm run dev

Compile the Compact contract and sync ZK assets:

npm run build:contract

On Windows, compact may resolve to the built-in NTFS compression tool. Install the Midnight Compact compiler, then run with COMPACT_BIN pointing to the real executable if needed:

$env:COMPACT_BIN="C:\path\to\midnight\compact.exe"
npm run build:contract

Create a production build:

npm run build

Built for the Midnight ecosystem hackathon.
