I'm not a professional developer.But with basic knowledge, curiosity — and a lot of help from ChatGPT — I’m building this project from scratch.

The first version of the Pixel Canvas DApp is now running locally with real Web3 logic.

Here's what’s already working:

• 🎨 Interactive pixel canvas (40x20) with on-click painting

• 💰 On-chain pixel purchasing via smart contract

• 🧠 Wallet connection (MetaMask + Sepolia testnet)

• 📦 Persistent state of pixels stored and updated correctly

Every pixel bought is reflected on the canvas and stored on-chain. No central server is used for ownership.

• Frontend: React

• Backend: JavaScript-based workers (custom logic)

• Blockchain: Sepolia testnet

• Smart contracts: Solidity (pixel purchase, ownership tracking)

• Web3 integration: ethers.js

Development is fully local for now, but 100% decentralized-ready.

The interface is minimal for now, but the logic is working:

• Wallet connects

• Pixel is selected and paid for

• Smart contract registers and locks it

• 🖌 Interface upgrade: zoom, color picker, hover info, owned-pixel highlights

• 🧾 Ownership tokenization: 1 pixel = 1 ERC-20 token

• 🪙 Reward logic: when NFT is sold, rewards are split based on tokens

• 🗳 DAO logic: later, tokens can be used to vote on decisions (hold/sell/mint sequel/etc.)

I’m building this project without formal dev background.This is a learning project — but also a real experiment in collaborative, ownable digital art.

With help from ChatGPT, open-source tools, and Web3 logic, it's possible to go from zero to a live decentralized DApp.

• Launch public version on Sepolia testnet

• Finalize smart contract for token and reward logic

• Publish the code for review

• Open up the pixel canvas to early testers

There are no socials yet — I’ll keep posting updates in this Mirror blog.If you're curious, drop in and follow along.

**Web3 is not only for developers.**It’s for creators, tinkerers, and curious minds.Let’s draw something together — and make it truly ours.
