✨ New on Warpcast: Mini-app experiment

We're exploring launching mini-apps from frames and deep links. Thanks to @paragraph and @matthewfox for working with us on the first prototypes. More coming soon.

Try out Paragraph and Flappycaster in the frames below 👇

Under the hood, these are deep links to composer actions. If you're interested in building your own, see the developer docs here:

What needs to happen for the purple button to show?

Wowow, paragraph mini app looks neat  and it works amazing 💜

So, after discovering DeepLinks, I am trying to convert my old Cast Action so it would redirect to the new Composer Action, which is more powerful and versatile.

It kinda works, but it clearly fails into appending the selected GIF to the appropriate cast, which should appear in reply to the selected cast, instead of prompting a new one.

@horsefacts.eth @gt
is this possible to achieve rn, or still not?

Can I maybe resolve it by passing parentHash to postMessage? 
Tbh I removed from my webpage code when it stopped being mandatory!

Cheers

little q on that purple btn 😁

A mini app view is a full HTML/CSS/JS webpage, so it's both easier and harder in some ways. Easier because you can use a full interactive canvas and any web framework you want, harder because there's more to set up than a simple image.

From a technical standpoint, will it be possible to easily convert any frame into a mini app? 

Or is there much more that goes into it?

Yes, same model as composer actions, it all starts with a signed Frame message.

Do you inject an auth token or something similar into the iframe? i.e can I auto-log in someone?

Mini-apps are composer actions + deep links, so see the docs here for now. 

I know this is confusing, will write up a "mini app" specific version of these docs.

is there developer documentation for miniapps yet?

Yes, when they launch they get a signed message with the user's identity, same as a frame. So it can log you in or be aware of your Farcaster ID.

They can also pass messages back to the client app. Right now the only command is "create cast," but I can imagine adding others like "request transaction," "send DM," etc.

Do mini apps have any access to the users FC data/ability to do any on-protocol actions based on actions/results of what happens in the mini-app?

WebSockets should work fine, subject to same origin in iframes on web.

Are there any restrictions on in-mini-app browser functionality? Mostly interested in WebSocket support.
