# Template Factory

Every crypto project deploys the same contracts. Token. NFT. Staking. Liquidity. Each custom deployment introduces unique bugs. Each requires separate audits. The redundancy is staggering.

The Template Factory uses EIP-1167 minimal proxies to deploy complete ecosystems from battle-tested masters. One master serves thousands of clones. All nine contracts deploy atomically. Audited once, used infinitely.

## The Clone Revolution

Traditional deployment writes entire contract logic on-chain repeatedly. Every project deploys the same ERC20 logic. The same staking logic. The same market logic. Thousands of identical contracts, each vulnerable to unique implementation errors.

The Template Factory deploys master contracts once. Projects create lightweight clones pointing to masters. These clones contain 300 bytes of jump instructions, not 30,000 bytes of logic. The master holds the logic. The clone holds the state.

Think photocopying versus handwriting. The master is the original document. Clones are perfect copies. Every clone behaves identically to the master but maintains independent state. One audited master protects thousands of projects.

## OpalsRecipe: One-Click Ecosystems

Recipes orchestrate multiple template deployments atomically. One transaction deploys token, cards, markets, claims, launcher. Everything wired correctly. Everything initialized properly. Five minutes from idea to live project.

Without recipes, you deploy each contract manually. Connect them individually. Test interactions. Fix issues. Days become weeks. Weeks become months. Meanwhile, your competitors ship.

OpalsRecipe eliminates this complexity. Choose your parameters. Call deployProject. Wait for confirmation. Your entire ecosystem lives on-chain, fully owned, completely sovereign.

## Seven Templates, Infinite Projects

The Template Factory provides seven core templates covering every project need.

**Token Template**: ERC20 with fixed supply. **Card Template**: ERC721 for NFT memberships. **Market Templates**: Stepped, Fixed, or Members-based sales. **Claim Templates**: PatronClaim, VaultClaim, DiamondClaim distribution. **Launcher Template**: Automated Uniswap liquidity deployment. **Project Template**: Central hub connecting everything. **Operator Template**: Role-based access control.

These templates compose infinitely. Need unique governance? Add custom contracts alongside templates. Need special mechanics? Templates handle standard parts, custom code handles unique parts. Best of both worlds.

## Sovereignty Through Ownership

Template Factory deployments belong entirely to creators. No admin keys retained. No pause functions hidden. No upgrade mechanisms lurking. Deploy your contracts, own them forever.

Compare to hosted platforms. They control your contracts. They can pause trading. They can change parameters. They can disappear tomorrow. You're renting, not owning.

Template Factory gives you the contracts. Full admin control through your Operator system. If Opals vanishes tomorrow, your project continues. Pure ownership, pure sovereignty.

## Integrator Economics

Build on Opals, earn from the ecosystem. Add integratorAddress when deploying through the recipe. Automatically receive portion of protocol fees from projects you onboard.

This creates sustainable business models for tools and platforms. Build deployment wizards. Create management dashboards. Develop analytics platforms. Every project you bring earns you recurring revenue through integrator fees.

The composability extends beyond code to economics. Everyone building on Opals benefits from Opals growth.

## Permanent Code Creates Mathematical Trust

Templates cannot be upgraded. This is a feature, not a limitation. Your clone points to a specific master address forever. That master's logic never changes. No rug risk through malicious upgrades.

New features require new templates. TokenV2 deploys alongside TokenV1. Projects choose their version. Old projects stay on V1 if they prefer stability. New projects pick V2 for features. Natural evolution without forced migration.

This immutability creates trust. Verify the master once, trust the clone forever. No watching for sneaky upgrades. No governance votes changing your contracts. Mathematical certainty through permanent code.

## The Democratization Effect

The Template Factory democratizes access to sophisticated contract infrastructure. Bootstrap founders can launch without expensive audits. International teams deploy without complex legal structures. Anyone with an idea accesses the same battle-tested contracts as established projects.

This isn't about cost reduction. It's about removing barriers. The same security. The same functionality. The same sovereignty. No compromise on quality for accessibility.
