zkblock is an evolving toolkit for zero-knowledge and web3 dapp development offering educational resources, boilerplate dapps, dev tools, a zero-knowledge ecosystem library, and a focus on learning enhancement.

zkblock started as a boilerplate for developing zk dapps using circom ( groth and plonk). But since inception, it has grown to include other tools required to develop zk and web3 dapps.

The goal of zk-block is educate and help users to develop quality zk and web3 apps. Since, the inception we have included several features to make zkblock useful for development,

You can read blog posts to learn about new features and various technical topics such as new EIPs, Transient Storage etc.

You can try our two boilerplate dapps to develop zk dapps using circom, snarks, and semaphore. It provides two basic apps for zero knowledge ( age verification, zk voting using semaphore). https://boilerplate.zkblock.app/

You can use dev tools in the playground section to help quickly convert and debug during solidity development, such as

  • EIP-712 signatures
  • ERC-191 signatures
  • gas convertor, byte conversion etc.
  • Burner Wallet
  • Merkle Tree Generator

Brief of project development history can be found here, https://heypran.notion.site/Zk-Block-Updates-Improvements-5b1e05faa7b040de9ab8fc1dec7867dc

We are working on building a new app for the users with primary focus on making learning and education fun. The funds from the grant will be used in maintaining the current zkblock features and new features in development.

If you are willing to have deep understanding of some concepts, feel free to explore contracts in https://github.com/Elefria-Labs/playground-contracts

We are also working on a slot visualizer for evm chains- https://evm.zkblock.app. Its still work in progress.
