Farcaster Devs

Small but important improvement for mini apps: URLs

Similar to the App Store, you now have a clean link with a UUID that you can share.

The URLs will automatically launch the mini app if a user has the mobile app installed or are logged into web.

Next up is improving the unauthenticated experience for both mobile and web to help make it easy to get people to sign up and start using the mini app as quickly as possible.

Introducing new Mini App URLs

Previously when copying the link to a mini app, they would look something like this:

/~/min-apps/launch?domain=framedl.xyz

Now they will look like this:

/miniapps/8IsRgNO4ssVz/framedl

The new structure will make the URLs more readably and SEO friendly. By using an ID it also allows for rebranding without breaking links.

We also added a way to copy your mini app's link from the developer tools.

The /~/mini-apps/launch and /~/frames/launch URLs still work.

The open web is dead, long live the open web. ⌐◨-◨

Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

More from @gabrielayuso.eth here:

this is great but one thought. Is there a way to specify which image card unfurls when it's shared outside of Farcaster? I made the below image card specifically for the feed inside of Farcaster and it makes less sense outside of it. (would prefer to have my regular open graph image card here).

Building Snack Money.

Miniapp Link: https://warpcast.com/miniapps/e7_h6G11m0Sr/snack-money

That is kind of long tbh. Any short url option?

tiny detail but it makes miniapps feel way more real and polished

cool! Believe in a great future of mini apps!

The next feature looking hot 🖤🤝🏻
