I'm really interested in:
- communication between apps, a la @npub19hg5...yv9p.
- app store/publication a la @Zapstore

Market places
P2P hashed documents (doctors, layers, journalists etc.)
Communications for entities like companies, schools, governments that can grant access for specific keys to access different parts of their data.
Event bookings and direct ticket sales !!! And all similar organizational tools including any P2P commerce, vendor reputation with web of trust !
I like how nostr will give non social media platforms, social media powers. But.
Unified Balance across all nostr apps and websites
Webs of trust with scores that have real implications
P2P Marketplaces for goods and services from humans and LLM's.
VPN competitors, allowing you to surf the internet through nostr relays.
A communications protocol for AI to exchange value and data more freely in order to perform higher level tasks.

I'm working on bridging git with nostr
https://swarmstr.com/ has the stackoverflow look and feel on the way, kinda
has the Kickstarter thing working
and some other projects are trying to create a GitHub like experience
So I'm super pumped to see what will be available in the next years

Great suggestions!
Which git project is yours?

Wow, what tool do you use? Or is it custom?

Where is yours!?
Ty! 🤙
Are there any?
Would like topic based community chat (a la reddit or discord)

Recent creations by last weeks developer of the week, @:P. He's been learning quite a bit about programming and the nostr data structures recently and putting it to use!
The ability to have my own created identity and wallet follow me around to all the different nostr apps and sites.
Well npub.pro is a first step
Have you checked these two?

Yes my friend thank you... we know... we are working on it… going to be pre pulling the images and loading them from local rather than from nostr media servers ;o)
I use ndk. The wallet descriptor (hashed) is the discovery method for other wallet participants. Since the descriptor could leak however, each participant has to be manually allowed in the real wallet chat. In there participants can exchange PSBTs and chat.

Zapstream or habla.news so better twitch and Substack
The ones that aren’t here yet. Get me a browser with native Nostr account wallet and such and the doors will open to a brave new world. Brave had the potenticial but they got cucked with their token and wallet.
Regarding communication between apps possibilities:
Huge milestone: First demo of Nostr Web Services (NWS) bringing TCP to Nostr. With NWS, you can host any existing web application on Nostr without having to use DNS or even announce your public IP to the world, simply by sharing your service's npub (or nprofile).
Try it out the demo yourself. Here is a Cashu test mint running with NWS. Let's use curl to retrieve the mint's information. The request travels from your computer to the public NWS entry relay, then through nostr to the service's NWS exit relay. At the other end is a Cashu mint with HTTPS encryption.
```
curl -s -x socks5h://relay.8333.space:8882 https://nprofile1qqs8a8nk09fhrxylcd42haz8ev4cprhnk5egntvs0whafvaaxpk8plgpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuwpnxvejuumsv93k2g6k9kr/v1/info --insecure | jq
```
I can't stress this enough: THE MINT RUNS BEHIND HTTPS!
The NWS entry relay can't read your traffic. It's encrypted. We can host public entry relays that can be used by anyone.
This means we can plug the entire internet to it 🌐.
Let's plug it into Cashu for now. Nutshell wallet supports socks5 proxies (that's how it uses Tor). By setting the public entry relay as the proxy, the wallet can now connect to a mint's npub/nprofile and communicate with it via NWS.
This is going to be so freaking cool. And it's going to be a lot more useful than just for Cashu. There are still bugs and issues that need to be ironed out but the code is coming out soon. Watch this space.
