Project Description

We took a couple of days to explore some ideas for a cool, viral, onboarding mechanism. In hindsight we needed more than a couple of days lol

App Clip: To make onboardings as smooth as possible we needed an app clip; a lightweight app that does not need downloaded from the app store. Apple restricts the size of app clips which can be downloaded by NFC to 15mb, which meant we needed to completely rethink the structure of the project. Things were made worse (impossible actually) by the fact that Apple disable location services on app clips, something essential to the design. We thought we could confirm the location to within a reasonable range in another way, but using react native in the app clip had a side effect that the location work around was also impossible.

Expo SDK52: We had to use the new (2 day old) expo SDK version to enable app clips. This caused further problems with other libraries we planned to integrate like XMTP.

Rather than scrape something together we just thought it was better to wait and try something similar another time!

How it's Made

Made with all the above. We also integrated EthSign (we did actually have this working, but without the real location data there was not much point submitting)

We'll be back and try somehtin similar another time! Moreeeeee informationnnnnnnnnnn Moreeeeee informationnnnnnnnnnn
