Next Step Microgrant: Decentralized Library

[holyaustin]

1. What is your project?
   Decentralized Library is a LEARN and EARN project that uses ERC-721 to create ebooks and video books for users. It leverages the power of Decentralized storage to store books (ebooks and video books) for students and other users. NFT.storage is the Filcoin technology used in the storage of library materials. A user can read books or watch video books online or download them for offline usage. When learning has taken place, the user takes a quiz, upon passing the quiz, the user is rewarded with a Delib NFT.
   The Delib NFT can be used to get discounts in the premium books and used for tickets in live classes and webinars.

2. How are you planning to improve this project?
   Get more books for other disciplines and upload them to IPFS storage, Computer science discipline is the only discipline currently supported. Improve the user interface. Get more books and video books for various categories. Include Premium purchase for premium books and video books. Tidy the smart contract to accept reading one book for multiple users and deploy the smart contract to Polygon mainnet or any other L2 chain. Get someone to help generate questions for the quiz and also integrate the quiz to help test for rewards in the system.

I wish to add more categories of books are like:

1.1 Performing arts

1.2 Visual arts

1.3 History

1.4 Languages and literature

1.5 Law

1.6 Philosophy
