If we made normal frames more like composer actions (i.e. Telegram-style mini-apps), what would you build that you can't with frames today? The argument against is most people don't want use fully-featured apps in a squished window vs. in a separate app. When frames work well, it's because they are constrained with a clear call to action and meet users in the feed where they are spending time.

Also have never found the in-app browser in a crypto wallet to be a good UX (mostly because the websites don't seem well-optimized for mobile).

I think the Warpcast team could develop a mini-app framework that offers a native user experience and leverages system notification capabilities. WeChat’s miniprogram has already seen huge success. The server component in Expo looks promising for this use case.

my 2 cents 1. leave frames the way they are, different use cases 2. deep links for composer actions 3. let me initiate a txn from a composer action the same way we can do it from a frame 4. once i can initiate a txn from composer action, make cast actions more like composer actions

my few words from the user side: - I don't want to suffer my feed experience in favor of some long content in the frame that takes many steps and breaks my exploration experience. - I want frames in the feed to be minimal, more acting as a preview of something, easily and quickly navigateable. - I also want frames in the feed that show information more efficiently rather than what the text presentation would. - I also want to know how many frames are left to be seen to finish the desired flow, to better consider wether I want to click through or not. I'll check if it's 3 steps, but will skip if it's 9 steps. - I want to see mini apps in the feed if the CTA is clear, but I definitely don't want to play tetris there. - I want to use social apps that integrate with Warpcast smoothly and have them stashed somewhere for use.

Would probably convert any frame with more than 2 steps into a mini app I would personally love it for viewing stories (see composer action vs frame below) I think there’s a place for both modalities https://warpcast.com/stephancill/0xfb8e6f2e https://stories.steer.fun/stories/stephancill

/nook Frames - Leave your own rating/review on a shared nook link - show much more information about the actual content thats being shared in a popup (where to watch / listen / buy) - Assuming audio would work, preview movie/tv show trailers or listen to a song Composer Action: - More advanced "detect content from cast" composer action (can only do so much with 4 buttons and an image) Probably more this is just off the top of my head

Would definitely build some mini-apps. 👍 Even common crypto actions like swaps, tips, mint, etc would benefit from having an active canvas. The full http call UX limits Frames to basic marketing actions vs true mini-apps that users expect. Mini-app momentum is just getting started and FC should be a major auth/social graph + crypto payment provider. Could be a standard that gets integrated everywhere around the Internet a la Blinks. Which would require a FC account to auth in. 👍 TG makes it easy to package up PWAs into mini-apps. FC could do the same with SIWF and then a crypto tx API.

Slicker checkout flows, richer content selection / catalogue UIs, more GUI intensive games, maybe easier to incorporate other wallet / aa paymaster infra ? I could see a place for both full blown mini apps and frames constrained form factor To me Farcaster client like WC is also a kind of browser in a sense, with native wallet capability and identity graph. These are like various little bubbles of the web (frames, actions, maybe mini apps, which could themselves even be verticalized FC clients of a kind)

I think there are still a lot of things we can improve within existing triangle: frames - cast actions - composer actions, and then move towards fully mini-apps approach based on where we are limited! Mainly integration and composability between these, currently it's like 3 separate islands, which are connected in some way, but each in a different way. Happy to share specifics!

yeah, frames shouldn't try to be a mini-browser because that's bad UX abd we're copying not innovating. frames should let you do stuff that's NOT possible otherwise, or do something x10 better by staying within.

> most people don't want to use... most @event activity happens directly in warpcast and the composer action supercharged that. It's a lot easier than going to a separate app. > what would you build one thing I really want to build is an "edit" button on @event frames that pop open the @event composer action so you can edit easily. Really the only thing missing from this today is a static link to open a composer action (e.g. warpcast.com/actions/eventcaster)

livestreaming would be cool, keep form factor the same. allow users to subscribe / emoji react / tip crypto in real time. support vertical aspect ratio. could attract a new set of content creators from IG / TT

Imo the killer feature is it being in feed. Those constraints also make the products more concise.

If it still enables signing (both crypto wallet and FC-related), I would embrace it. It seems to be working well for Telegram and the way the mini-apps collapse into the bottom, enabling quick access without leaving either experience, is a masterclass in UX design imo. If/when FC has this, it’s a game changer.

I agree that fully-featured apps is too much in a squished window. But, there are a lot more creative things that can be done with the call to actions to make frames a more unique experience than button pushes. https://warpcast.com/kyletut/0x2078f10a

hypercasual games. there were all sorts of games in frames from snakes to Cassie’s DOOM on launch day but frames being the way they are, i dont know anyone who stuck to playing games on frames including myself. composer actions makes UX way better. look at flappycaster for example

Mini-multiplayer-games. If you mean the initial frame is dynamic: live tickers/charts, scores, countdowns, live spectator view of the above mini-multiplayer-games.
