ΞID Mobile

ΞID Mobile is an Open Source Decentralized Identity wallet.

MIT License. Freedom.

Built as a playground to experiment with decentralized identity and emerging standards like 3ID and the latest developments by 3Box. The application will focus on features like verifiable credentials, decentralized profiles, social interactions (search, following, communities), managing spaces and other less explored ideas like peer-to-peer verifiable credentials.

👷🚧 Getting Started - Under Construction 🚧🏗️

Rapid prototype warning. The primary prototyping focus was to create the navigation, routes and include the 3 major dependencies: IdentityWallet, WalletConnect and Ethers. That's complete. Now the fun begins 🎉 However, it's still a little rough around the edges and requires a digital soul cleansing.

Major Dependencies

React Native: 0.61.3
IdentityWallet: 0.2.1
Ethers: 4.0.39 (upgrading to v5 soon - testing external effect)
WalletConnect: 1.0.0-beta.38

As is customary with Ethereum focused React Native applications we also node-if-ied React Native.

Depending on how 3Box handles IPFS integration into React Native the application may include non-normative approaches to shimming React Native to include additional decentralized capabilities. Until a decision has been reached, the application will utilize JSON-RPC to make request to the blockchain and IPFS storage.

Setup

git clone git@github.com:KamesCG/ethid-mobile.git ; cd ethid-mobile ; yarn

Android

yarn run:android

IOS

The IOS version is behind in development. IOS coming soon (wait) or creat pull request today! The choice is yours.

The Current Roadmap

The current prototype was to outline the navigation components, setup the routes/routing and include the 3 major dependencies: identity-wallet, @walletconnect/react-native, and ethers.

In Progress

IdentityWallet (Decentralized Identity) MVP
WalletConnect (Cross-Device JSON-RPC)
Ethers (Crypto My Dude!)

What are we going to build next? I have a few ideas... However, I think the feature candidates should include input from people interested in the project. If any?

Simple Identity/Profile Setup
Peer-to-Peer Verifiable Credentials
Feature Complete Identity Wallet JSON RPC System Manager
Feature Complete WalletConnect JSON RPC System Manager
Both 3ID and uPort ethr-did support (IPFS/Blockchain)

Ultimately the objective is to modularize the core "decentralized" features. Allowing patterns that emerge around verifiable credentials, decentralized profiles, automated IPFS pinning, delegate key management, etc... to be abstracted and easily migrated to new appliations.

If decentralized identity is too succee a blossoming ecosystem with 100's of applications is likely required. Thus, from a Product Engineering perspective it makes sense to create an MIT Licensed feature/component catalog for Web3 developers and decentralized application development teams to utilize and contribute too.

What types of patterns are likely to emerge you ask?

Decentralized Profile Best Practices
Verifiable Credential Type Indexing/Search
Functional Web3 Intefaces (React Hooks, Effects and Reducers)

What

An Experiment to understand decentralized identity in the mobile environment. The experiment seeks to understand what is the optimal method(s) to onboard new users into a decentralized environment. The verifiable credential part of decentralized is new, and explored territory. A lot can be learned from a feature driven, MIT license project. The project is MIT licensed to promote contributions and forks.

Optimal Decentralized Identity Onboarding
Peer-to-Peer Verifiable Credentials
Multi-IPFS Hub Support and Linking
3ID Standard Experimentation
Burner/Delegate Key System
Multi-Device Communication (WalletConnect)

Why

A number of reasons. A big reason being 3Box has released the identity-wallet module and, in general starting to mature the core decentralized identity features: authentication, storage and communication. It's a great time to be a Web3 Developer.

The primary reason is I just want a really great decentralized identity wallet. A completely open and free to use codebase that will let me extend, experiment and invite new contributors.
