GigBlocks is a decentralized freelancing platform built on Scroll blockchain, leveraging ENS for reputation management. It aims to solve issues of traditional freelance platforms by offering transparency, global access, and fair treatment of freelancers. Key features include smart contract-based job management, ENS-powered reputation system, and future plans for ZK-based privacy features.

• Job Management: Clients can create jobs, assign freelancers, and approve completed work, with payments securely handled by smart contracts.
• Reputation System: Freelancers build their reputation through a non-fungible token (NFT) system, earning project points and maintaining a verified profile.
• Payment Security: All payments are held in escrow and only released upon job completion, ensuring fairness and security for both clients and freelancers.
• Decentralized Storage: User profiles and job details are stored on IPFS, ensuring data integrity and availability.

• ENS Integration: Implements ENS as a subdomain for freelancers, acting as a reputation system. This allows freelancers to showcase their verified profile on a decentralized web, building trust and credibility in the community.
• L1SLoad Precompile: Utilizes Scroll's L1SLoad Precompile to bridge data from Layer 1 (L1) into Layer 2 (L2), resolving ENS Domain using scroll network.

This project consists of three main repositories:

1. services-gigblocks: Handles API off-chain requests using Pinata IPFS.
2. contracts-gigblocks: Contains smart contracts responsible for job management, user management, ENS (Ethereum Name Service), and reputation handling.
3. ui-gigblocks: The frontend built with Next.js, providing an intuitive interface for clients and freelancers.

• Research and experimentation for chain growth
• Increased traffic to Scroll chain
• Future expansion of ZK features for freelancers

• Expansion of ENS profiles
• Integration of work history into ENS
• Support for R&D in ENS applications

• Alignment with Ethereum's mission of global financial freedom access
• Democratization of freelance protocols
