Introduction

ghooey is a solo proof-of-concept built in ~ 5 days during the LFGHO 2024 hackathon built primarily with Alpine.js and aave-utilities

It is designed to be a versatile drop-in front-end toolkit to enable developers to build and integrate Aave widgets in their existing codebase. The baseline is to help promote the growth the adoption of web3 protocols in web2 products through developer experience.

By seamlessly integrating ghooey into their websites, developers would gain the ability to create tailor-made widgets, facilitating user onboarding onto the Aave ecosystem. It implements the rails to integrate the following features that would allow users to :

  • Monitor their Aave portfolio
  • Deposit and borrow liquidity from Aave markets
  • Transfer liquidities and delegate their borrowing powers to other users

The name ghooey is actually a play on words :

  • GUI, Graphical User Interface
  • gooey, as this toolkit aims to offer flexibility in terms of how to implement a feature
  • GHO, the Aave stablecoin and focus of the hackathon
