Abstract
Embodiments described herein provide a user interface for interacting with a smart contract deployed to a blockchain. The user interface is custom-generated for each party to the smart contract. In particular, representations of actions that a particular party is enabled to perform and/or has already taken with respect to the smart contract are provided to that party via a user interface. A user experience generator queries the smart contract itself to determine which representations are to be provided to each party. The smart contract comprises functions and/or user experience annotations that indicate to the user experience generator which user interface representations should be provided to a particular user based on the party identity and/or the smart contract's state. The smart contract provides an event notification to the user experience generator, which prompts the user experience generator to query the smart contract to determine the allowed actions for a particular user.
