Storage

Mumbai/Polygon

Everyone has access to store on mumbai testnet. Content uploaded via bundlr will be deleted after two weeks.

Polygon mainnet is currently for curated artists only. Content uploaded via bundlr is permenent.

Overview

We have streamlined the process for creators to easily upload NFT projects to Arweave via Bundlr Network. Here is what’s going on behind the scenes.

To upload content to Arweave, normally you would need an AR wallet & Arweave (AR ) tokens to do so. We have abstracted this away by integrating Bundlr Network , so creators can upload their NFT projects & simply pay with matic tokens using their Polygon wallet.

Please Note: You must sign a transaction per file you are uploading to Arweave. Then one final transaction at the end to confirm.

Checks

  • Step 1: Check your web folder structure.
  • Step 2: Create your thumbnail image.
  • Step 3: Customize text in app.webmanifest file for your thumbnail image.
  • Step 4: Zip your website.

Assets

Yes 😃 You can load any files that will work in a browser aswell as assets such as jpeg's, glb's, mp3's. To keep everything as decentralised as possible please include all assets in your project upload with relative paths.

Where are my external assets stored?

On Arweave. You will recieve a Path manifest file once you upload all your files within your web folder to Arweave.
