frames-devs

Thinking about abstractions we could add to farcaster-js to help out devs building frame servers. Would love some thoughts. Our current thinking here 👇

Example frames app: a webserver that serves a quiz. Uses 3 frames: an initial welcome "splash page," a frame for rendering a multiple choice quiz question, and a frame showing the user if their guess was correct.

Would be built to support multiple web frameworks. ExpressJS here for example:

Splash page is purely static content, and can be simple

The frame for a QuizQuestion will return dynamic HTML content for the image, which farcaster-js would render to PNG. Library handles creating the appropriate <meta> tags for buttons, and passing query params into the imageURL

For completeness, this might be the frame that renders the correct answer, with a single button to proceed to the next question (back to the QuizQuestion frame)

thread

Library would handle creating the appropriate HTTP GET and POST handlers for the different web frameworks (next.js, express, etc)
