# Technical Product Whitepaper ## Overview Shenkii is a blockchain-based dApp (decentralized application) that acts as a marketplace bringing manga artists and buyers together while allowing owners to host galleries while protecting the IPs of artists simultaneously using blockchain-backed ownership with the Ethereum blockchain. ## Product Requirements ### Main Marketplace Landing Page Will act as the main landing page when users want to browze for tokenized manga. ### User Profile/Gallery Page Dependent on the user. Will display user information in a profile-like UI format while also depicting all the user's purchased or uploaded (blockchain verifies if they own it) manga art in a gallery-like way (think IG profiles). ### Art Pages Using the same UI format, the only components that are different depend on the manga art the user has selected to view in particular. The menus, side bars, 'buy' option, and other core components should stay the same obviously, but the manga art thumbnail, ETH price and descriptions (and other relevant information pertaining to that manga art piece) should be variant. ### Transaction Process Just the simple process where, as long as the user as an integrated (and approved on our site) crytpo wallet containing enough ETH, the user can select 'Buy' and pay for the asked ETH price and receive blockchain-backed ownership of the manga piece thanks to the Ethereum blockchain. This component of the frontend has the most affiliations with the blockchain backend and even potentially the cloud database if there are any pieces of data that needs to be collected and centralized. ### Artist Uploading ## Software Architecture ### Client Side ### Blockchain Backend Since we're building this C2C marketplace on the Ethereum chain, Ethereum (in technical terms, we're using ERC20 tokens) should be used in this type of marketplace. ### User Management System ## Resources/Docs Repo https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1vB3ilQ-KgA93_IdcDxCZg1in2mB77zrf?usp=sharing
