Today I got all the pieces in place, to start actually building the app: I have a RN app with the SSB modules I made, plus some framework stuff, some basic components, the app's GUI skeleton, icons, etc.
The four tabs are:
- News feed
- Channels (?)
- Metadata
- Notifications ('mentions')
Metadata is a screen showing your connected peers, gossip data, a dashboard of ... metadata, etc. This will be a place where the user has access to raw data about everything they store on device. You add pubs here, you accept invites, etc.
I'm not sure if I should have Channels as a tab. Channels can also live in the menu accessible from the menu button on the left. Maybe I should have
- Public
- Private
- Metadata
- Notifications
Thoughts?
This was what I achieved today and tomorrow I'll start making the basic news feed screen with messages and publishing, hooked up to background-scuttlebot and using some patchcore primitives.
