πŸ“• Who You Are (Nostr Implementation Possibilities β„–2)Β #122

Description

What to explain

Identity across NIPs: kind-0 metadata and NIP-24 extra fields; NIP-19 bech32 encodings (npub/nsec/note and TLV nprofile/nevent/naddr) morphing to and from raw hex; NIP-05 DNS-based identifiers and the .well-known/nostr.json lookup; NIP-02 follow lists as kind-3 events; NIP-39 external identity claims. The through-line: every layer is a presentation of the same 32-byte pubkey.

This book is part of the series "Nostr Implementation Possibilities" (book 2 of 10) β€” pass --series "Nostr Implementation Possibilities" --series-order 2 to video.mjs. Depends on the nostr viz toolkit (PR #120) being merged.
