⭐️ New Release: Hosted Manifests

Create a fully-validated Mini App manifest in under 10 seconds - just a couple clicks from desktop, no phone needed.

We host, auto-cache-bust, and you keep the same security plus the option to fork the file back to your own server whenever you want.

ATTN: MINI APP DEVS - EZ MANIFESTS

In response to strong feedback indicating the existing manifest process was difficult and can feel like "eating glass" we've implemented a new Hosted Manifest flow wherein devs can create and update a signed Manifest using a simplified Graphical User Interface.

Please give it a go and let us know.

Best,
FC Devs

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

honestly thought the existing manifest process was pretty straightforward, but thanks for shipping!

yea it both was and wasn't

"just put a file on your server"

but depending on your experience as a dev and your understanding of the nuances of Farcaster and reasoning about how thing are cached etc it can be quite a stumbling block

for me it involved sending me the manifest from the phone to the computer via telegram and that was a bit of friction that it seems is not there anymore
