Contracts — CodeforDAO

Contracts — CodeforDAO is a public Solidity repository containing modular DAO contracts built around ERC-721 membership, related ERC-20 shares, governance and a vault.

Understand the project

Practical overview

When it fits

Use it when you want to inspect or fork Solidity components for a DAO and work through the repository's local deployment and Web UI integration instructions.

Who it is for

  • Developers building or adapting DAO membership and governance infrastructure.
  • Teams exploring local development or test-network workflows for a DAO contract set.

Documented uses

  • Create an ERC-721 membership entry point with allowlist invitations and investor membership minting.
  • Connect membership to share issuance, vault-based asset and permission management, and two voting frameworks.
  • Run the contracts in a local development environment and connect them to a Web UI using exported ABIs.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The project is available as a public GitHub repository. Its README identifies the license as MIT.

  • The repository is Solidity-based and targets EVM smart-contract development.
  • The README says to fork and modify it locally rather than import it as a library.
  • The membership contract is described as the entry point that deploys the vault, ERC-20 token and two governance contracts.
  • The README explicitly characterizes the project as work in progress, unaudited for code security and not gas-optimized.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Set up a local membership-contract development workflow

Install the project dependencies and use the documented deployment command for the membership contract.

Before you start

  • Familiarity with basic smart-contract concepts.
  • An installed development environment.

Steps

  1. Fork or clone the contracts repository locally rather than importing it directly by Git link.

  2. Run the command below in the repository.

    Documented command
    npm install

  3. Run the command below to deploy the membership contract.

    Documented command
    npm run deploy:test

Expected outcome

The README's documented test deployment path for the membership contract, which creates the related DAO contract set.

Guide limitations

  • The README notes that a dependency conflict may require npm install --force.
  • After deployment, it says to call setupGovernor to transfer important permissions to the vault.
  • The project is a work in progress, unaudited for code security and not gas-optimized.

Start the local Hardhat network for Web UI work

Launch the documented local network with contracts deployed for Web UI integration.

Before you start

  • The contracts repository and a local development environment.
  • The Web UI project, whose default contracts directory is ../website/contracts/.

Steps

  1. Run the command below to start the local Hardhat network with contracts deployed.

    Documented command
    npm run dev

  2. Export the contract ABI files to the Web UI contracts directory.

  3. Add the newly deployed MulticallV1 contract address to the Web UI project's .env.local as NEXT_PUBLIC_LOCALHOST_MULTICALL_ADDRESS, without the 0x prefix.

Expected outcome

A local contract network and the ABI/address configuration described for connecting the Web UI.

Guide limitations

  • The README's example address is not meant to replace the address from the local deployment.
  • The README describes TEST_STAGE as a Web UI testing setting; it does not establish production deployment steps.
