[DMP 2024]: Trust Registry Implementation including Registry of Registries (allowing multiple registries in a single ecosystem, or country)

[ajile-in]

Ticket Contents

Description

Develop the Trust Registry by implementing the Trust Over IP Trust Registry Specification

What is a Trust Registry?
The Trust Registry allows querying for critical items in a digital trust ecosystem such as Entities, Registries, and Resources that are required to operate in the trust ecosystem.

The ToIP Trust Registry Protocol serves to provide a simple interface to enable access to systems of record that provide the information that drives a trust registry. There are a plethora of systems that contain answers that are required to make trust decisions. The protocol is intended to make the communication with any particular system-of-record consistent and simple.

This is a network service that enables the Governing Authority for a Trust Ecosystem to specify which Governed Parties hold which Authorisations under the particular trust ecosystem.

For example:
Which entities hold an authorisation under an ecosystem?
e.g. “Does entity X hold the authorization of india.driver.license.issue” - equating to the authority to “issue” a “driver license in India”;
What other trust registries are recognized by this particular trust registry?

Goals & Mid-Point Milestone

Goals

• Week 1 - Understand and present the design of Trust Registry based on Trust Registry Specification
• Week 2 - Collaborate with mentors to design if needed based on feedback from Week 1
• Week 4 - Add Issuer into Trust Registry and map with allowed schemas
• Week 5 - Add Verifier into Trust Registry and map with allowed schemas
• Week 6 - Add another registry details

Setup/Installation

No response

Expected Outcome

No response

Acceptance Criteria

1. Provide a thorough understanding, presentation, and design of the Trust Registry based on feedback, ensuring alignment with the Trust Registry Specification. Documentation must accompany the design, covering all aspects comprehensively.

2. Enable users to create a trust registry by providing specific descriptions and details.

3. Implement functionality for trust registry administrators to onboard issuer and verifier organizations, facilitating their participation and integration into the trust ecosystem.

4. Allow trust registry administrators to onboard additional trust registries, enhancing the scalability and interoperability of the trust ecosystem.

5. Ensure strict adherence to the ToIP Trust Registry Specification v2.0 throughout the development lifecycle, guaranteeing compatibility and compliance with industry standards.

Hi, I am interested in contributing to this project. Please let me know if there is any prerequisites tasks to be done or I can start working on my proposal straight?

[vsvishalsharma]

Hey @ankita-p17, @amitpadmani-awts, and @jacquesvb71,

I am eager to contribute to the CREDEBL Trust Registry project, bringing my expertise in JavaScript frameworks and my experience as a C4GT contributor at Samagra-x/stencil. My skills in NestJS, TypeScript, ESLint, and Jest, complemented by my work with React and Next.js at BharatShaIyk, equip me well for this project's demands.

Based on the resources provided and the project description, I understand my tasks to include:

Frontend Development: Crafting a user-friendly frontend similar to the example in the video (https://youtu.be/xBmeomMpYeE?t=676). This will involve designing and implementing interactive elements that enhance user engagement.

Trust Registry Form Creation: Developing a form to enable users to create a trust registry by providing specific descriptions and details.

Additionally, I will focus on implementing crucial functionalities for the project's success:

Onboarding Issuer and Verifier Organizations: Implementing functionality that allows trust registry administrators to onboard issuer and verifier organizations, facilitating their integration into the trust ecosystem.

Enhancing Scalability and Interoperability: Enabling administrators to onboard additional trust registries, thereby enhancing the scalability and interoperability of the trust ecosystem.

Adherence to ToIP Trust Registry Specification v2.0: Ensuring that all development efforts strictly follow the ToIP Trust Registry Specification v2.0 throughout the project lifecycle to guarantee compatibility and compliance with industry standards.

Hi @ajile-in @ankita-p17 I wanted to work on Cross-border verification using a foreign trust registry, credebl/platform#624. However, I am a bit confused on how to fetch data from Trust registries for cross -border verficiation as it is something this issue caters to. I would be really glad if you could clarify me about this. Thanks!

Hi @ajile-in , I'm Vivek Mishra, a third-year NIT Karnataka student with a strong passion for building impactful web applications. I'm excited to express my interest in the Trust Registration Implementation project!

My background includes:

Full-Stack Development Experience: I honed my skills as a full-stack developer intern at aiRender for 6 months, working with JavaScript, ReactJS, Redux, and WebRTC. This experience solidified my understanding of both front-end and back-end development.

MERN Stack Expertise: In addition to my internship, I'm also a proficient MERN stack developer, comfortable working with MongoDB, Express, React, and Node.js. This versatility allows me to tackle projects with both front-end and back-end components.

My problem-solving skills are further bolstered by my achievement of a gold medal at Worldquants Brain, demonstrating my ability to think critically and find efficient solutions.

Apart from that I am a fullstack blockchain developer and Research Intern at IIT Kanpur in Zero Knowledge Proofs(Cryptography).

I believe my technical skills, combined with my enthusiasm for building meaningful projects, make me a strong candidate to contribute to this project. I'm eager to learn more about the specific requirements and how my expertise can be utilized.
