Agenda

  • Bifold Fork Management Strategy Discussion - Sam
    • At least 2 orgs maintaining "forks" of Bifold to ship applications
    • Is there guidance on how to best stay close to Hyperledger Bifold Main
    • What are the strategies here?
    • Other questions
      • Bifold as a fork – very hard to keep things together (contribution becomes hard to stay in sync)
      • Contribution after the fact – figure out what to contribute, create a PR, rebase if needed, etc
    • Android & iOS folders are fairly specific to the individual app, etc
      • Tool or generator to scaffold a Bifold app - Lance love this
    • "Fork" – not meaning going away from Bifold. Eventually an org will need to make deviations from Bifold, such as brand/color changes, logos, navigation
      • Not "Fork and Forget"
      • "Close Fork"
    • Modularization - Contributing on a component-basis would be easier
      • We also need something for someone to start from – defaults
      • Framework – how to manage screens, components, navigation, etc
        • Peer dependencies are a mess in React Native
        • Library vs Framework
          • Framework is in control and manages things
          • Library has re-usable pieces that an end developer can use
            • Does AFJ fill this role?
            • Bifold fills a valuable role in the community – fully featured application, an example
            • How do we make it the easiest for people to contribute back to Bifold – not a launchpad but rather a ship
      • Navigation stack is a bit of a mess
        • Very business-case centric
        • Components could be passed a callback that handles navigation (meaning the end-developer/app can handle it)
        • This could be a boundary line – a component doesn't do
    • Collaboration between organizations
    • "It would be easier to contribute if..."
    • Is React Native the right place? – Yes, for today
    • Technical Process for managing forks
      • BCWallet – Bifold is set up as a Git Submodule
  • OCA in Bifold (followup from the Aries WG)
    • Draft PR for an API
      • Issues running in Bifold
      • Goal is to just get started, using layers, configuration, etc. May need to refactor
  • Timing of first credential issue
  • Q/A w/Maintainers
  • Review PRs.
  • Review relevant issues.

Next Meeting
