can you decompose this headache into constituent parts for me? at its simplest, the manifest is "put a signed JSON file on your web server". what gets in the way to make it so confusing and complicated? (not suggesting this is actually easy and everyone is dumb, it's obviously confusing to many people and the tooling is not working. but I don't think the fundamental concept is super complex)

it is easy, and we are dumb pretty much what @mjc716 said - I also fuck it up every time it probably be fixed by letting auth addresses sign it updating the dev tool to let you create it in a "cant fuck up" way instead of a "don't fuck up way"

yea I’ve done it like 5-7 times at this point and every time I fuck it up lol to start, can’t do it on desktop so I’m copy pasting editing verifying in that weird box in the mobile app and emailing it to myself there is some domain tomfoolery I have to do two manifests if I want to test it locally via ngrok prob some other stuff and also I’m sure there are better ways to do it than I do it but the docs aren’t great either

Separate file for manifest because metadata. Separate file for association because security. They are independent. Mixing concerns is why people get confused.

Can there be like an app that you can fill a table and it creates the json file for you?
