LipsumLogin

Inspiration

Our endearing love for decentralized next-generation blockchain technology, and the future of the web.

What it does

LipsumLogin is a passwordless login page that uses Metamask to uniquely identity the user by cryptographically signing a given message.

How we built it

LipsumLogin was built with the Express node.js web framework, nginx, and Materialize for styling.

Challenges we ran into

Some challenges we ran into were:

• Cryptographically verifying Ethereum signatures with the proper formatting
• Handling sessions/cookies appropriately
• User-friendly
• Front End & Back End Integration

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• Very glossy, user-friendly page
• Robust API

What we learned

• Time given should be a major factor in setting the scope of the project
• Setting up VMs & Projects in Google Cloud Compute

What's next for LipsumLogin

• Further generalizing the project, and opening it so others can learn & use it
• More documentation
• Integration with our future projects
• Adding other login methods (TOTP, U2F)
