Day - I Don't Know of Focus | Ship | Complete - A shift to a dedicated backend (Nestjs) (1/n)
 
Last few days have been crazy!

1. Completed: Shipped a Shuttle instance. 

A great learning experience for anyone looking to get into FC infra & prototype, learn & research FC event streams & data.

3/n

Also fed up with 1069 repos & scattered codebase in Nextjs apps.

Behold, SOME of my WIPs!

4/n
So!

One repo  to rule them all, one repo to find them, one repo to bring them all, and with FC account bind them!

(Let me know if you get the reference)

5/n

Building a solid backend to complete the projects & give access through an FC account to a suite of products starting with multilingual caster, intelligence for social dex and more.

6/n

Focus areas:
- moving & merging existing code from projects as modules in a single NestJS repo
- FC Auth for access
- Containerised deployment - Docker - how have I missed you!

Multilingual Caster - calling it Glotsphere!

The flow in place: User -> Cast -> GPT -> AppDB -> Neynar.PublishCast.

But was unclear as to how Neynar’s managed-signers are working under the hood!

8/n

Started digging into code.

It took me to Farcaster/hub-monorepo/core - ViemLocalEIP712Signer.

Kept digging!

9/n

Decided to spend this lovely but warm Saturday creating a code walkthrough on it similar to Shuttle.

It covers in depth how hub-monorepo & Neynar’s managed signers work.

Still being exported to Youtube. Will add the link & playlist below.

10/n 

Now continuing onwards with completing this quickly!

Also, I livestream the coding sessions on Twitch. Join me whenever!

2/n
WIP - Was shipping the multilingual caster. 

Got fed up with timeouts & requests dying in Vercel. 

GPT takes its sweet time to translate.

Looked into a solid backend structure with Nestjs.

Always wanted to bring a solid backend to the fore!
