Degen

GN Degens, small update:

Our designer's killing it—v1 of the app has a clean, on-brand UI that already feels great to use. Even without standout features, it’s 🔥.

- Frontend dev joins Tuesday.
- Backend interviews ongoing.

From /degen to full Farcaster client. Proud & building. 🛠️

since farcaster client should become open source, have you considered forking and building on top of it?

fortune cookie casts, memes, parenting, building mini apps, /framedl, /framedl-pro & /calmer

that's not the point. infra is separate, but loads of useful patterns and ui elements are definitely gonna be there

Nah, not really. My guess is the Farcaster client’s AWS bill is tens—maybe hundreds—of thousands a month. Open source or not, that kind of infra cost isn’t something most can just absorb. It’s like giving away the plans to a Ferrari—doesn’t mean you can afford to drive it.

you won't be able to just fork it and run it. infra is proprietary. but lots of frontend building blocks to make building your own easier
