Mini Apps

embed images are the most underutilized component of mini apps

they are the life blood of a good mini app since they provide an organic means for your app to get in front of eye balls and create natural points for community members to hang out

here's a breakdown of the mini word "brag" share card which is a good one

@farcaster dev / dad / books, cooks, ski, code ~ there are many things of which a wise man might wish to be ignorant

it would be interesting if you created a miniapp and went through the process of adding embed images like the one you shared. and actually told us what you learned and how you did it

i have been building frames and miniapps since they started and this is still something that feels out of my reach. that's why i don't do it more

Check out the @neynar starter. @veganbeef has a nice example in there for making dynamic embed images with a user’s PFP.

We found one of the key problems mini app developers struggled with was creating personalized embed images for users when they shared the mini app on their timeline

If building with /neynar starter kit, it's as easy as adding `/share/[fid]` at the end of your mini app domain when sharing, we will automatically generate a personalized share image

I used this @jpfraneto.eth and can confirm it was very useful!
