Topics
AT Protocol
Hosted by Wesley Finck
Some possible projects:
- Open Frame for ATProtocol: Similar to Farcaster, allow an ATProtocol client to render an interactive frame from a link that meets an open graph schema, allowing for authenticated actions to take place inside the frame.
- Subconscious / Noosphere integration
- your idea here!
The Local First web
Hosted by David
Local first web applications ("LoFi") are collaborative applications that work offline and without any complicated server deployments. Today, I'd like to explore one of the key pieces of any application: User authentication. We'll look at how to connect the distributed world of user owned secure keys with traditional authentication methods like email, SMS or social logins and build a collaborative web application that works entirely in the browser.

Decentralized Compute with IPVM
Hosted by Boris
The Everywhere Computer helps you write and run serverless WebAssembly functions everywhere. Install a node on your machine and experiment with writing Rust, JavaScript, or Python functions that compile to WebAssembly.
Enhance
Hosted by Brian
Server-side render web components with any backend (javascript, python, rust, etc). Build your entire app with accessible HTML. No JavaScript required...unless you want it!
Requirements
This is an event from developers for developers with a basic knowledge of JavaScript, HTML and CSS. For the ideal hacking experience:
- Bring your Windows, Linux or Mac laptop and charger (power plugs and WiFi will be available)
- Be familiar with the command line of your operating system
- Have NodeJS installed and the node, npm and npx commands available
