Our differentiator includes unique peer review processes and advanced technologies, promoting global collaboration and unprecedented co-creation. With deScier, we democratize access to scientific publishing, driving the advancement of knowledge on a global scale and demonstrating the efficiency and benefits of our approach compared to traditional methods.

Introduction

The deScier – Decentralized Science is a project that represents a revolution in scientific publishing, offering an alternative to the expensive and restrictive traditional model. deScier is a collaborative community dedicated to advancing human knowledge by facilitating scientific publications and funding. Our goal is to eliminate the barriers of traditional publishing and promote a new era of academic communication.

We offer a decentralized scientific publishing platform that aims to improve transparency, reduce the influence of intermediaries, and promote fair access to scientific knowledge. With fast and user-friendly processes, we ensure peer review and maintain 100% of the copyright with the authors.

We believe in the power of collaborative work and co-creation, accessible to everyone in a shared economy. Our global community provides guidance, support, and fosters innovation and collaboration, allowing authors, editors, reviewers, and designers to work together on high-quality publications and advance knowledge faster.

Cloning the repository and runing locally

Clone the repository by running the following command in your terminal:

git clone https://github.com/GoretiFreitas/deSci-platform.git

Once the repository is cloned, navigate to the project folder using the terminal and install the project dependencies:

yarn install

After the installation is complete, you can start the local development server:

yarn run dev

Open your web browser and visit http://localhost:3000 to see the result. The application should be up and running locally on your machine.

I recommend using the Inline Fold extension for Visual Studio Code when working with Tailwind CSS in this project. This extension allows for a cleaner and more organized view when multiple Tailwind CSS classes are used on a single element.

Setting the environment variables

Before running the project you need to set up environment variables. Create a .env file at the root directory and add the following variables:

NEXT_PUBLIC_NODE_ENV=<your-env>
NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL=<your-api-url>

NEXTAUTH_SECRET=<your-secret> # Generate using `jose newkey -s 512 -t oct -a HS512` ou `openssl rand -base64 32`

GOOGLE_ID=<your-google-id>
GOOGLE_SECRET=<your-google-secret>

WEB3AUTH_CLIENT_ID=<your-web3auth-client-id>
WEB3AUTH_CLIENT_ID_TEST=<your-web3auth-client-id-test>

ALCHEMY_API_URL=<your-alchemy-api-url>
ALCHEMY_API_URL_TEST=<your-alchemy-api-url-test>
