Atproto, Protocol Powering Bluesky and other apps

It is easier to build a new application in Atproto, a protocol that offers more and more apps from Bluesky’s social networks.

~ atmosphereBlueSky CTO PAUL Frazee has given the attendees a glimpse of the AtProto Community Conference, which is held on weekends, to help developers how to develop the future and how to build more applications to expand the future ecosystem.

One of the main additions to the upcoming soon is support for certification standards. OauthSome developers are already testing today, but are not completed. OAUTH allows developers to create a user account for app users in the protocol -based infrastructure and provide visibility for session management and core account data.

For consumers and other end users, add OAuth to sign more easily and safely to the application.

In the settings of BlueSky, you can use the OAUTH options without creating an app specific password, so that people can log in to BlueSky, similar to joining a technical company such as Google or Apple. (There is a debate about how this user interface is presented because it is not clear that “BlueSky” should be part of branding. BlueSky will be one of the many applications of the ATPROTO ecosystem, and branding is that the user is signing with an open social account operated by Bluesky and other apps. It must be reflected.

Another change is the ability to post a vocabulary or schema that defines the structure of the data record directly in the protocol. Developers are important for developing new types of applications because they expand the ecosystem for objects on objects of other types of apps, such as recipes, calendars, or events of events, events or locations of events.

If you have a record that you have not seen before in the application, you can understand how to stop the data by solving the LEXICON definition through a inquiry process such as DNS. Share these resources may not have to be a way for app developers to spend time defining their own dictionaries.

At the end of this year, the Bluesky team will start working on how personal shared data works. This is important because it allows new features that require personal data such as bookmarks.

App users also want to take advantage of end -to -end encryption, as shown in signal or whatsapp. Frazee said that the progress of this front could help with the current development of development. MLSThe security class advocated by the Internet engineering task force (IETF).

Frazee said, “We have actually have a lot of interest in MLS across many technical stacks, including the web.

Other development of this task is to improve relay -provides “Fire Horse” of network data for other services that are part of the AT protocol infrastructure. Running your relay is cheaper and expandable by not requiring a relay to maintain the entire archive.

The work is also planned to improve the user experience of account migration and to support migration to BlueSky’s server instead of just far from the server as much as possible today.
