Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

Some time ago I made the start of a front-end app store, but now is just sitting on my computer so if anyone wants to use it for anything contact me nd we can talk.

The brainstorm itself need not be anything technical. The Lemmy side of Fediverse Futures is purely for ideation. So the idea would be imagining what the concept of a "Federated App Store" would look like for people that use it.

The Murmurations use case in that story would look something like:

  • I want to announce my app to the world.
  • So I write a Murmurations profile and attach it to my project website. Done!

Then a federated app store:

  • I am interested in collecting [this and that] apps in my store.
  • Apps announce themselves to me via their profile.
  • I federate my app index for other stores, if they are interested. Done!

Oh I see. I'm not creating it tho, I'm just giving my front-end as an open source project for anyone to use it. I spent a long time on that and thought it would be a waste to just be sitting here on my computer. Code is code, and if someone gives it a good life I'm happy for it :D
