Description

The TokenCreater provides a frontend to seamlessly issue and manage tokens.
By this it enables everyone, indepent of technical skills, to create, mint,
manage, monitor and destroy tokens. It abtracts the technical details away
and offers a simple dashboard with easy to use forms.

TokenCreator solidity functionalities to create new smart contracts with another
smart contracts. Every user owns the smart contract of every token created by
her. TokenCreator offers one type of token right now, the SimpleToken. The
roadmap includes adding more tokens and finally allow users to experiment with
different attributes and parametes. The ultimate goal is to foster financial
inclusion by supporting community and complementary currencies.

TokenCreater is still in the MVP-phase, tokens can be issued on different
testnets. TokenCreator is heavily inspired by Celo's Make Crypto Mobile
Hackathon and aims to be a recognized
submission and optimally gain funding for a short runway of a few weeks to test
the market hypothesis (i.e. test is demand for token creators is high enough
for a business case).
