A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

Running

the most important problem of ai is data

im creating an app for runners. the core feature is for people to upload their workout session screenshots, and let *something happen* after that (some sort of ai feedback loop that helps them achieve X goal, and there is an aspect of social interaction that i need to figure out)

well: on the /running channel of farcaster there are actually 4097 casts, 3357 of them with embeds. that data is gold. and open. and i downloaded it and now im creating the whole pipeline that i need to create for the app that im coming up with

using actual data. i won't tell people to stop using strava. or garmin connect. or anything they are using to record their runs. that would be a degree of friction that would be impossible to solve

but this is different

so i created this custom frontend, displaying a random one of each of those casts. and this allows for an experimentation when developing this pipeline that feels very good

There is nothing more powerful in this world than words.
