Products
-
Blocklet Launcher
sunset
Launched a Blocklet onto a server without configuring it by hand first. ARC handles that differently, so the launcher is no longer needed.
-
DID Names
active
Domain management built on DID and verifiable credentials. One account can host and manage many domains at once, rather than configuring each one separately.
-
DID Spaces
renamed
A data space associated with a DID. Create a personal space, or connect an application with the permissions and data model its task requires.
-
Media Kit
superseded
Stores and serves the images and files a Blocklet uses. Its work has been taken into ARC; the standalone Blocklet is no longer maintained.
