let's say i wanted to make a nostr client as a complete beginner
where would i even start?
Discussion
NDK
ah, sounds familiar
how hard would it be to make a goodreads client for nostr?
think there is someone already on it but would love to choose between multiple
hmm, would love to know who's making one?
if I remember correctly, i think it is nostr:npub1jdyaqyngdj4tgmmtlm7j7npkr3fwzjcumcwdqf68dc9wd5lf39rqwlfwsu
It seems to be a nostr community of librarians recommending books, not a nostr client 🤔
big ndk energy, thank you ser
Step 1: Download #Amethyst
Step 2: Say, "Wooooow, this is amazing. This does everything I'd ever want from a client."
Step 3: Forget that nightmare of making your own client
🤙🤙
i am not a fan of everything-clients
oh that i've used a lot 😅
Fork wikifreedia 😅
hmm, it's not really articles i suppose
i think there's more common ground with listr
I believe most wtart with a "hello world" program.
go to snorts repo and work on that instead of making a new one.
even if it isn't a twitter clone i have in mind?
gotcha. do you mean beginner programmer or beginner to nostr client building?
both 😁
ahh. well i'd suggest learning to program a bit more before diving into a client on your own. i'd suggest doing code academy and checking out existing projects to get a feel for it before doing it from scratch yourself.
what languages would i need for such endeavour?
depends on what you wanna build but most would probably say python or javascript. if you wanna to do nostr stuff in the browser, you can't go wrong with javascript. also, ndk by pablo is written in javascript and is great for making nostr clients. https://github.com/nostr-dev-kit/ndk
It’s a nightmare, even for a seasoned engineer.. trust me.
copy/paste an open source client.
rename it.
