Hello, ZK-Wordle! In this article, let’s take a closer look at the implementation details of our ZK-Wordle app. You can find the complete app code here and try out the production deployment here. The previous article covered the app architecture. So, let’s once again take a look at the sequence diagram that we initially presented there. Figure 1 - ZK-Wordle Sequence Diagram Our main points of interest are the zero-knowledge proofs for the clues and player stats....
With the series of articles on zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs), I’m aiming to create a guide on their practical applications that will be helpful for fellow software engineers interested in the topic. The first article will cover the path from my initial fascination with ZKPs to my understanding of ZKP application architecture basics. What Are The Zero-Knowledge Proofs? ZKPs are genuinely fascinating. Before learning about them, I used to think of cryptography merely as a means of secure communication, where Alice needs to pass some information to Bob in a way that only prevents any other party from learning it....
2021 marked a milestone in my engineering career as I entered the world of blockchain development. This blog post is for those who are aiming to do the same. I want to tell you about the helpful resources I found along the way. I’ve been watching the blockchain space since 2017 and could not resist the urge to become a part of it as a BUIDLer. Since about 2018, I started to dive deeper and put substantial effort into it....
