Project Description 📄

XCM is the crosschain communication standard that will be used by all the parachains. Currently XCM is still in early stage but is already support some main usecases such as crosschain transfer of fungible tokens.

There are currently two major areas of XCM that still awaiting to be improves:

  • Extend & improve xcm-format to support more use cases
    • We have few issues & PRs so we are on track on getting this done but of couse more helps as always welcome
  • Implement library & tools to ease the development of XCM related code
    • xtokens handles the fungible asset implement, and we also need simialr one for NFT
    • We need some tool to allow developer to test XCM related code: paritytech/polkadot#2544
    • To implement more complicated XCM scenarios, we need some tools to help with async programming

The scope of the new project count be one of:

  • Develop tools to help developer to test XCM related code
  • Develop pallets or utility libraies to better handle the async nature of XCM communication
  • Develop pallet to handle crosschain transfer of NFT
