I've been talking about this with a few people recently, less of an app store and more of a directory of projects.
nostr:npub1xdtducdnjerex88gkg2qk2atsdlqsyxqaag4h05jmcpyspqt30wscmntxy has started something sort of similar at https://nostrapp.link/ too.
Missed out you and Artur! That's a cool feature, but what is the algo behind recommendation? I would rather user have their options. This could be an add on. I'm not too sure how a directory of project works - more for devs ?
The idea of an app marketplace is that attracts users - and tool devs need a lot of users to try their tools, so that they can build more for users.
Clients can also integrate this - expand userbase for tool devs, and more options for users. when users are happy, clients are happy. Its a win win for all
Users will recommend apps, and apps will publish info about themselves, and any client can use all that info to suggest other apps to users. I don't think we have good models of what's possible in this open interoperable system yet, so lots of experimentation ahead.
exactly
I can't believe not everybody that sees this is jumping up at the opportunity to explore/discover these new paradigms
like niche-relays; I can't wait to get to play with weird-as-fuck relays
My hope is to help find ways to increase user adoption for tools. This in turn will boost more tool devs and create better circulation. A bit of catch 22. But if it’s not needed then the idea can be abandoned, no biggie
I think your feedback will be welcome here https://github.com/erskingardner/nostr-how/pull/99
