Talent Protocol (Decentralized Task Board on Sui)

A decentralized talent and task management protocol built on the Sui Blockchain. This application allows users to create tasks, lock SUI as a reward, apply for open tasks, and get paid automatically upon completion.

Features

• Create Tasks: Anyone can create a task by providing a title, description, and locking a specific SUI amount as a reward.
• Apply for Tasks: Users can browse the task board and apply to open tasks (except their own).
• Complete & Pay: Task creators can mark a task as completed, which automatically transfers the locked SUI to the assigned worker.
• Refund & Cancel: If no one is assigned or the task is no longer needed, the creator can cancel the task and securely refund their locked SUI.
• Real-time Event Tracking: The frontend dynamically fetches TaskCreatedEvents from the Sui network to display active tasks.

Tech Stack

• Smart Contract: Sui Move
• Frontend: Next.js (App Router), React, TypeScript
• Styling & UI: Tailwind CSS, Framer Motion, Lucide React
• Web3 Integration: @mysten/dapp-kit, @mysten/sui.js
