Developer Workshop
A Developer Workshop
on how to add Decentralized Identity into your app or project
Learn how to setup and use decentralized identity for your application project.
Things to know
This step-by-step workshop shows developers how to create apps and service using Decentralized Identity. You'll learn the basics of decentralized identity, how to setting up and run your own identity service using ArcBlock's Block Server and DID:CONNECT Blocklet, enable the use of the user-controlled identity wallet DID Wallet to let users control their data and build a React App to see how it all works. Here are a few things to know before we start.
Developer Notes
ArcBlock's team walks developers through the process of building an application using the ArcBlock platform. The below walkthrough will help guide you through the steps as you watch the workshop.
This session will look at the following:
- Decentralized Identity (DID) Integration Walkthrough
- DID Auth (DID Comm) in real life including building a live demo.
To build your own applications using decentralized identity. Here's what you will need to start:
- DID Wallet
- Block Server
- DID:CONNECT Blocklet (available in the Block Server marketplace)
- Write a bit of code
DID Wallet Basics
- Built for Decentralized Identity
- Two layers of security: password recovery and recovery codes
- separates user profile and identities
- browse applications an explore within the wallet
DID Wallet Walkthrough
The Foundation of the Application is Block Server
- Prerequisites: Node.js
- Block Server is the base layer for the ArcBlock platform and ecosystem
- Blocklets: building blocks that can be used for your decentralized applications
- web-based interface
Setup Block Server
DID:CONNECT
- Prerequisite: none
- A Blocklet: install from the Block Server marketplace
- web interface that makes integration DID Auth easy
- your own DID Auth service on your own node in your infrastructure
Setup your Identity App in DID:CONNECT
Let's get coding!
- Create a React App
- add
@arcblock/did-connectdependency - configure DidSessionProvider
- use Session context
- Specify
serviceHostandappDid - Run!
