Documentation for using node as an identity #29

Closed whiteyhat closed 5 years ago

whiteyhat commented 5 years ago

Hey! Where can I read some documentation about how to use joule-extension as an identity for the web? I just read the readme but I could not find any other documentation about it.

Thank!! 👍

Hey @CarlosRoldanx, the identity part of it comes from the WebLN provider that Joule injects into the page. You can read more about that here: https://github.com/wbobeirne/webln

Both Joule's implementation, and the spec for WebLN are still in flux, so any feedback you'd have would be much appreciated!

Hope you don't mind if I close the issue for house-keeping, but feel free to hit me up with any more questions.
