A beautiful yet simple Farcaster client Built as an open source example for FarcasterKit x Neynar, as well as part of dwr.eth's mobile client bounty

• Expo
• FarcasterKit's farcasterkit-react-native
• Neynar's react-native-signin

1. Set up the app locally

• git clone https://github.com/dylsteck/litecast
• cd litecast && yarn install

2. Set environment variables

• Copy .env.example to a new .env file and add your NEYNAR_API_KEY
• In constants.ts, the API_URL value is for FarcasterKit's API, which has routes to get/receive the signer and post casts to Neynar. Don't change this value you're running the FarcasterKit API locally, but if not change the value to http://api.farcasterkit.com
• Set the same values you have in your .env file in eas.json under the env sections for development and preview

3. Create Expo project

• To run the app locally, you'll need to create an account at https://expo.dev, then create a new project
• Once you've created a project, run npm install --global eas-cli && eas init --id [YOUR PROJECT ID] to overwrite the existing project with your own

4. Run by calling yarn start

Note: These are just a few todos on the top of my mind that would get the app to v1.0(full feature parity with the mockups below), but I'm sure smaller tasks and larger ideas will come to mind as well.

• [] Further style the cast and thread components
• [] Add search
• [] Add following channels(via search)
• [] Add user pages
• [] Add more of the backend logic to farcasterkit-react-native (not much left to move over)
• [] Add logout capabilities

Here are some mockups to further showcase where the app is headed -- huge shoutout again to Sirsu for the amazing designs 🙌
