ODHack: Backend for discussion

[tensojka]

This backend receives the text of a proposal, the address of the proposee and converts the address to starknet.id if available. Then it creates a JSON with these two (or three if the submitter has a starknet.id) pieces of info and submits it to IPFS. Once the IPFS hash is computed, it should be returned to the caller. Then the backend uploads it to IPFS and pins it with a pinning API or your choice.

Expected skill level: Junior Backend developer

Definition of Done

The backend is written in one of Python, Typescript, Rust, Go. The code is formatted correctly and is ready to be deployed. It has been tested, either with the frontend if available or with curl or similar. The backend returns the IPFS hash before the upload is finished and finishes the upload asynchronously. The code has been reviewed by someone from Carmine Finance.
