[MICROGRANT] Sytime

[poolsar42]

1. What is your project? (max 100 words)

Sytime is decentralised chat application.
Users can connect to our DApp with their Ethereum wallet, with an extension like Metamask.
Sytime allows users to create and edit personal accounts on the Ceramic platform leveraging decentralized identity
and user data sovereignty to interact with other users in a chat.
Users can also chat with others in different rooms and view the history of each room as well as send pictures to chat.
The list of rooms is also stored as part of the ceramic profile so users can keep their chat history handy in different browser sessions.

I have intention to make it electron-app in the near future.

2. How are you planning to improve this project? (max 200 words)

add encryption
make it more customisable (ui/ux, ipfs config)
Make it as a desktop client as well. It'll be most preferable to use it as a desktop app actually. Because all history will be stored on the client's side.

3. Will the work be Open Source?

Of course!

4. If selected, do you agree to complete weekly updates and a grant report upon conclusion?

Yes. I actually want to do so.

5. Does your proposal comply with our Community Code of Conduct?

Done 👍
