Farcaster Devs

Improving Farcaster developer docs

Looking for examples where the docs are:

1) Confusing

2) Incorrect

3) Missing something that would have saved you a bunch of time

i think a free, no sign up, public RPC in the docs would help people playing around with the protocol. is there a reason why farcaster doesn't advertise one?

i've always used free public RPCs that i learned about on the timeline in my apps 🤷‍♂️

being able to pull data from the network for free with no sign ups using a simple command line curl is powerful demonstration of the network's capabilities imo

farcaster is more similar to base/OP than ethereum. and in evm development new devs don't even think about RPCs because viem/wagmi have public ones built in. see optimism's docs here

same, I use https://publicnode.com/, it's great, but also there's a million more: https://chainlist.org/chain/1

Not high priority right now. I don't think most new developers are looking to build at the protocol level vs. mini apps.

Also: does Ethereum offer this?

Two options that work well enough:

1. Practical - Neynar has a free tier
2. Maximally decentralized -- Run your own node
