Welcome! We have a collection of demo apps written to help you get a head start on your @platform journey. We recommend looking at the apps in the following order:
at_hello_world
: A beginner app that introduces the fundamental @platform verbs.at_chats
,at_cookbook
: Intermediate-level applications that build on theat_hello_world
app to create a messaging service as well as a cookbook.@mosphere
: A production-level application (included in a separate repo) that uses advanced @platform verbs to stream large files across multiple @signs.
Just like any Flutter app, an @platform application requires a little bit of setup before you can get started. Here are those steps:
- Add the service file to your app: You can simply copy this service file from the
at_hello_world
application. This file contains helper methods that allow you to implement @protocol functionality with just a couple lines of code. - Add the configuration file to your app: Again, feel free to copy this from the
at_hello_world
application. This file contains variables that allow you to use the virtual environment. Make sure that theROOT_DOMAIN
string is set tovip.ve.atsign.zone
and you have a unique name for theNAMESPACE
of your @pp! - Copy the dependencies from the
at_hello_world
pubspec.yaml file and put them into your project.
We are super glad that you are beginning your journey as an @dev. We highly recommend that you join our discord dev community for troubleshooting, dev updates, and much more!
