Mini Apps

easiest way to build on farcaster @ neynar.com | /neynar

I've been using the @neynar mini app template repo, but just noticed today that the "Connect with Farcaster" sign in is broken on desktop. When it requests me to approve on mobile, afterwards nothing happens. No issues in console or network tab, the app just doesn't move forward. Any updates needed to my app since the switch from Warpcast to Farcaster?

stopping by the Interesting Items tent, you want me to grab you anything?

Starting from this week, @almanax will offer offer $300 in security scan credits to the top 10 mini-apps on the leaderboard each week for the next 3 months. 

In practice, this means multiple full scans of mini-apps’ repos + continuous monitoring of code changes for 3 months, to prevent security vulnerabilities from making it to production. 

The product is self-service: https://app.almanax.ai/ 
To claim the prize, projects can DM me directly at the end of each cycle and I'll apply their credits. 

We believe mini-apps will be instrumental to drive the growth of the ecosystem, and we're excited to support their builders!

If you’re a mini app developer, jump on this offer!

Today, @almanax transitions from beta to general availability (GA).

What happens when the number of lines of code engineers produce goes up 100x thanks for coding assistants like Cursor? How are security teams supposed to handle that?

We believe AI will change security the same way it’s changing software engineering.

Almanax is an AI security engineer designed to help security teams prevent hacks.

Farcaster Devs

Is there publicly available data for the warpcast wallet to see which network the bulk of the assets are held on?

I’d imagine Base, but I’d love to see where most of the wallets’ USDC is held so I can tailor my mini app for that specific network

frames-devs

Noob question for the devs - if I want to test my mini app in the debug tool, and test out the "Connect with Farcaster" feature, it prompts me to sign in/approve from my phone - but then it doesn't actually do anything and just refreshes. 

The mini app works when testing it in the mobile app's frame playground, but doesn't seem to do anything on desktop. 

Is this a known limitation or am I just missing something?

Farcaster

Is there any plan or technical feasibility to sort of “vampire attack” twitter/X? 

I love farcaster but I’m always going back and forth between here and X because I don’t wanna miss out on the news/drama that’s taking place there. But if I knew I could see even just the “greatest hits” each day here I’d essentially only use fc as my daily driver. 

So much conversational liquidity is locked behind the walls of X but I feel like there has to be some way to unlock it

coding w/ AI is similar to autonomous driving in that right now it’s more like an imperfect but great assistant, whereas in ~5 years it will likely be seen as negligent to not use it

At that point those still doing it manually will be doing it solely for the love of the game

I heard Gemini 2.0 Flash image editing was legit 😂

has anyone successfully created a frame that can get microphone access and take in audio input? doesn't seem to be working for me despite clicking 'allow' in the iphone mic access prompt
