Furthermore we would like to invite everyone to an Ask Me Anything session on Friday 9th at 12h GMT to answer any question that may arise from the document.
Introducing NEM Framework
After about a year building NEM/Mijin based applications, we would like to propose a long term development project with a needed budget of 15 million XEM from the Community Fund.
In order for NEM to become the leading platform for building enterprise-ready blockchain applications, we need to lower the entry barrier and allow any developer to obtain the platform’s benefits without requiring an extensive knowledge of its core architecture.
It is because of this that our team has been working on the definition of a Development Framework. It will essentially be a set of tools, libraries and views that will enable any developer to create powerful and robust products on top of NEM technology.
The main components of the system would be:
Libraries that will allow and facilitate that any system integrates with NEM/MIJIN in an agile and secure manner.
DSL, a Concept Abstraction layer through a traditional Object Oriented system.
Proxy Layer allowing complex business logic on servers while keeping the private keys on the client.
Connection Pool that would ensure constant connectivity.
TestRPC component enabling Blockchain TDD
Visual components set that will standardize and secure user input.
Some of the benefits that such a Framework would offer are:
Faster training
Faster development times
Safer products
Better products
New Business models
Stronger Dev Community
With the objective of developing a consistent ecosystem, the NEM Framework will be designed following the good development practices of the NEM core team and the vision of the NEM Foundation. Furthermore, we will exclusively use designs and technologies that help the scalability of the systems and the health of the network.

About the Team
This project is proposed by Atraura Blockchain and is the result of the experience acquired by working on multiple projects during the last 4 years, the last of them being focused on building NEM/Mijin products.
Some of the NEM projects Atraura Blockchain has worked on are the following:
NEM Authenticator: Open source mobile application built from scratch using Ionic 2, that provides a software security layer to NEM Blockchain for non experienced users to secure their assets. This project is being used as a demonstration of how the Framework would look like. More information can be found here.
NEM Pay: Open source mobile wallet based on QM’s nanowallet and built on ionic that can be easily customized for any organization and mosaic. It is currently accounting for at least 3 different customizations. NEM Pay source code can be found here19
NEM Alias System: Open source nanowallet module that enables users to easily transact with each other without using a 40-character long string of alphanumeric characters but a simple alias instead. The project has been discontinued since it will be native to NEM in the near future. More information about the project can be found here7
NEM Voting Center: Open source nanowallet module that empowers NEM/Mijin with Governance capabilities. The project will be released in the short term and will enable everyone to create polls, proposals and even setup a Governance system for their own projects.
Landstead: Citizen and Land Registry application that was built as a Proof of Concept for Dubai’s Blockchain Govhack with great reviews. The site of the project can be found here9
Amount Requested
We would like to propose a long term development project with a needed budget of 15 million XEM from the Community Fund.
The amount requested will be used to build the Framework, the necessary tools for fast product/PoC development and to give assistance to the developer community.
Stakes in the Game
Our team is fully involved in NEM as community members, investors and product developers. This is because our mission is to help NEM become the main platform for enterprise ready applications and we intend to accomplish it building the necessary tools and products to create a thriving economy.
