Feeds - A decentralized social platform

Feeds is a new, decentralized social platform where users remain in full control of generated data. The platform is fully complying with concept of web5 vision on three pillars:

• Elastos decentralized identifier (Decentralized Identifier, DID) to sign in applications and therefore fully control the ownership of application data
• Verifiable credentials (Verfiable Credentials, VC) to reprent user social graph with sepcial formats and data model for cryptographic representation and verification of assertions
• Decentralized web nodes (DWN) with Hive network and blockchain to store generated data to communicate between users and applications as well.

Currently we have two types of Feeds applications:

• Feeds mobile application (Android & iOS)
• Feeds web application

Here is the repository of Feeds web application. Users need to use Essentials wallet to signin the application with #Elastos DID. Ownship of your data is happening here.

Deploy to run

$ npm run build

Builds the app for production to the build folder. It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes. Your app is ready to be deployed!
