The specs being used here are NIP-23 for the blogs and about pages, NIP-52 for events and NIP-72 for the social groups tab.

All of the features are editable in the env so would work well for any kind of meetup or event tbh. You just provide the nostr fields it should be looking at and the template does the rest.

That's the goal here is building around interoperable events. This tool doesn't even currently let you create events through it. It's just designed to be a viewer into the data from nostr with a dedicated web home to send normies to for connecting.

Right now OPA is publishing events to nostr but they're doing it from their npub and, to my knowledge, don't yet let you yet import your npub to publish yourself. So right now if you published through them you'd get an event on nostr but it wouldn't be from your own npub, it'd be from the OPA npub so that's why they wouldn't work well for this because you'd also see every other event they create too.

You could use Plektos.app or nostrcal.com to publish your event and then it would do a lot of what you said with NIP-52 compatible clients. The event would be visible everywhere that's set to read those events. OPA would need to be importing NIP-52 events for you to see there but everywhere else would see them.

This project is designed more for the normies but using general nostr data to power it. The end site will let anyone sign in with their existing keys using extensions or bunkers but will also let users generate a new npub with one click in an easy flow that they can then use on the site for that visit or back it up and begin their nostr identity.

I'd love for you to give the site a try now on lexingtonbitcoin.org and let me know what you think. Feel free to spin up a new npub and RSVP to one of the upcoming meetup events we have planned to see what the flow would feel like for a new user that you're trying to bring in. I'd love feedback for ways we can make this even easier for normies to have a first touch on!
