Accord is a ported dapp for producing sending and accepting document agreements on smart contracts, with signatures minted as NFTs. Enables Docusign-like capabilities and use-cases using web3 infrastructure to set up and collect signed document agreements on the XDC Apothem testnet or XDC mainnet.
Try it out here! (requires Metamask connected to XDC testnet).

- Accord enables anyone to create and collect esignature against documents without a vendor agreement. An XDC smart contract is deployed for each esignature request.
- Each packet of documents for esignature is made accessible at an IPFS url.
- When the esignature is completed, an NFT is generated that links both the signer's signature and the documents being agreed on.
- Hosted documents and the request are immutable.
- Smart contract deployed on XDC marks the progress/fulfillment of the esignature request. The contract can only be marked completed by the designated signer address at the time of final signature.
- An individual in the context of the Accord application is the pairing of a canvas (handwritten) signature and wallet signature/address.
- Wallet addresses are used as the source of identity instead of traditional means like username/password pairs and email addresses. Users attempting to access an esignature request without being under the assigned signer address are denied access.
To run/demo the project locally, Accord requires the following environment variables.
REACT_APP_NFT_PORT_KEY={YOUR_NFT_PORT_API_KEY} # NFT port api key for NFT signature receipt creation.
REACT_APP_STORAGE_KEY={YOUR_WEB3_STORAGE_KEY} # web3.storage key for file hosting.
REACT_APP_USE_MAINNET={false/true} # (Optional) String boolean indicating whether the XDC mainnet should be used. Defaults to false (testnet) if unset.
After declaring the above environment variables, use the below command to start the project:
yarn; yarn start
Recompiling Accord contract:
cd contracts; npx hardhat compile
