Voting with Custom Tokens — SitePoint

In part 5 of this tutorial series on building DApps with Ethereum, we dealt with adding content to the story, looking at how to add the ability for participants to buy tokens from the DAO and to add submissions into the story.

If you get lost in all this, the full source code is available in the the repo.

Votes and Proposals

We’ll be issuing Proposals and voting with Votes. We need two new structs:

struct Proposal {

    uint256 creationDate;
    uint256 deadline;
    mapping (address => bool) voters;
    Vote[] votes;
