WillGuard is a decentralized application (DApp) leveraging blockchain technology and smart contracts to streamline the creation and execution of wills. By harnessing the transparency, security, and immutability of blockchain, this DApp offers users a reliable and efficient solution for managing their testamentary wishes. Traditional will-making processes are often cumbersome, prone to errors, and subject to legal complexities. The Automated Wills DApp revolutionizes this process, offering a user-friendly platform that ensures the accurate execution of testamentary wishes while maintaining the highest standards of security and privacy.
- Smart Contract Execution: Smart contracts autonomously execute the terms of the will, ensuring accuracy and reliability.
- Immutable Records: All wills are securely stored on the blockchain, safeguarding them against tampering or loss.
- Decentralized Access: Users can access and update their wills from anywhere in the world, without reliance on intermediaries.
- Privacy Protection: Encryption protocols safeguard sensitive information, granting users peace of mind regarding data security.
- Legacy Planning Tools: Additional features facilitate comprehensive legacy planning, including asset distribution and beneficiary management.

You will need to start Metro (the JavaScript bundler that ships with React Native) by running the following command:
# using npm
npm start
# OR using Yarn
yarn start
From the terminal, press the A key to start the app on Android, or press the I key to start the app on iOS.
or
Let Metro Bundler run in its own terminal. Open a new terminal from the root of the project and run the following command:
- For Android
# using npm
npm run android
# OR using Yarn
yarn android
- For iOS
# using npm
npm run ios
# OR using Yarn
yarn ios
If everything is set up correctly, you should see your new app running in your Android Emulator or iOS Simulator shortly provided you have set it up correctly.
This is one way to run your app — you can also run it directly from within your Smartphone/Mobile Device, or Android Studio, and Xcode respectively.
