 Mock-up of new Onboarding client.

Meet Me On Nostr
An app for sharing nostr with friends. 

Do you love to share nostr with friends and family? Could you make use of a “QR code” app to get them signed up, following you, messaging you, and discovering your favorite people in one step?

Feedback requested from nostr advocates, and devs and designers alike.

 Some think good ideas are like assholes. Everybody’s got one, but only few can act on them. 

As a freelance designer AND developer of SMB and EDU web solutions for over 20 years, i might not be the smartest or most well known asshole in the room, but at least I get shit done.

Whoever thinks nostr needs a dedicated onboarding client, check out this mock-up. With a bit of funding, some nip-46 guidance from pablof, and  coding assistance from a junior Node dev, I am ready to deliver on this for the early new year. 

Please comment with your support.

 We’re in the process of doing user research on this and more generally what will make the new user experience work in a way where they stick around and keep using nostr.  
 Does your research involve leveraging “in person” or “existing” social connections? 

There are a lot of hurdles (technical and conceptual) in nostr onboarding.  GUI flows won’t tackle them all, but lots can be accomplished by having a real life friend to help pave the way. 

How has you researched looked at this variable? Have you considered what experienced wd be beneficial to grow the  advocate base? Thanks.  
 Word of mouth promotion. Local onboarding support. Social  recommendation engines. Web of trust solutions.

Because nostr is a “different kind” of social network, developing tools for nostr advocates to share nostr with family and friends is how nostr will grow and scale. 

How can I help?
