Overwhelmed by and grateful for the great response to farcasterkit.com! 🙏

Wanted to share some quick updates ~24hrs after launch

1) This afternoon I rewrote @casterscan's backend with Farcaster Kit -- which removed a ton of code and made the app faster. You can see by this very important search query below 😂

Check out the code as another example of how to use Farcaster Kit in your app: github.com/dylsteck/casterscan

bringing mini apps to 1B users @base              dylansteck.com

2) Cont'd work on auth modules today, should have early versions done by next week -- starting with sign in/create account with EOA, but moving on to Warpcast and Privy support afterwards

I'm making sure to prioritize auth since I know not only that it's needed to write to the network but also can be tricky for devs

3) I posted this in the original cast but wanted to re-emphasize the goal of Farcaster Kit

Making Farcaster apps can cost $$ and require devs to use multiple packages/services

Farcaster Kit aims to be an all-in-one package for FC devs, just like RainbowKit/Wagmi is for ETH and docs.lens.xyz is for Lens

4) Farcaster Kit operates as a standalone API/package, but it's also the first of many data sources for @cortex's Nexus -- a network of personal knowledge graphs and public data sources that I'll be sharing more about soon

TLDR; the package works on its own, but expect similar packages for non-FC content soon 👀

5) I just submitted Farcaster Kit to @purple's current retroactive funding round, and any support would go towards continued development of the open source package and its API! 🫡

Awesome! Let me know if you have any questions or run into any bugs 🫡

Cool! I'm thinking about a little FC client with added authentication via Worldcoin. Think of a verified human only client. This will help a lot!

Building /recaster and other farcaster tools

Appreciate the kind words, and that sounds great! Let me know if you have any questions

You make our life easier! Will try to use it in my project!
