🚀 MiniApps SDK Update

We’ve made a few improvements to the Mini Apps SDK:

- `composeCast` now returns metadata from the cast being composed
- `composeCast` now accepts channel keys, making it easier to post directly into channels
- A new `viewCast` action has been added to make viewing casts simple and seamless

Update to the latest SDK. See demo below

open for opportunities

The SDK is used to communicate between the host and the mini app. So ideally this is a better experience than having to render the data locally

I assumed view cast will display casts within the frame like an embed, i needed this too

Interesting, I was not aware of this. I can try and reproduce this later today.

Would you mind confirming that this is reproducible? I could not find an associated issue opened in the mini-apps repository.

LOVE THIS!! 

qq There was a bug when if the miniapp used composeCast with 2 embedded urls if the person typed in the cast window, one of the links would get dropped. Has that been updated too?

indeed. If the user does not follow up and send the casts that you composed, the promise will return `{cast: null}`

YES! this is exactly what I wanted the other day

so we await the composeCast function and the return of it has this data?
