Besides being vibecoded into existence... what's so special about this client?
Why should I try it - what's the value proposition and how do you intend to maintain it if lots of bugs appear?
Thanks to the help of #AI tools, the nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpqt5u3wp5kj78jwnuphpf5mhx00nwwtfwq56d6j8atnu89gd454wcswd02k3 team built Chorus in less than a week. Here's how you can replicate the process and launch your own #Nostr client in days:

Great questions! Public and private groups on Nostr have been a major pain-point with many disparate implementations, none of which seem to fully meet the needs of users or provide a genuine alternative to Facebook groups. Solving that was the main goal of this project.
While I focused mostly on the process of creating Chorus in this post, I'd love to do another deep-dive into the implementation we chose and why, how we expanded NIP-72, and the future plans to improve and grow it.
In the short term, I can tell you that the nostr:nprofile1qytzqamnwvaz7tmyd968gmewwp6kytmjv4kxz7gpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43qqgza8ytsd95h3un5lqdc2dxaenmumnj6ts9xnw53l2ulpe2rdd9tkyrf6f92 team definitely has plans to keep working on this client! I recommend checking out the "Future" tag on Github for a list of the things we already know we want to do, and we welcome bug reports as well!
