app directory with capabilities: first draft

[isaacvetter]

Maybe makes sense to split into verifiers and wallets/PHRs.

[jmandel]

I think a page like this is useful -- would be good to factor into separate sections for "Wallet" and "Verifier" apps because I think they're almost entirely disjoint.

[isaacvetter]

Are CommonPass and CLEAR wallets/holders? Apps with in-app verification will always tend to also have wallet features.

[jmandel]

The split you've made in ca840ca helps from my perspective, thanks!

Apps with in-app verification will always tend to also have wallet features.

Sure -- I think the key question is whether it's an app designed to be run by the data subject, to store/manage/share their own records.... or an app designed to be run by a third party to validate the records of customers/guests/clients.

[isaacvetter]

So, for example, a Marriott app that could both access, store, verify and display an SHC that was downloaded onto a consumer's device would be a verifier; because, it's primary purpose is verification. Makes sense to me!

[jmandel]

I think that's a good principle (though you've read more into my words than I meant; I'm sure this is a taxonomy we'll need to keep thinking about and revising and it won't be perfect, but we'll keep chipping away).

@jpp9 @jdkizer9 are you comfortable merging this? If not

• Are there changes you want to see?
• Is there someplace else you'd like this to live?

[jpp9]

sorry for being slow on this. i like the addition. my one hangup: i think some of the info in the table may not be right, and i don't want to speak for other app makers. can we reach out and get them to provide the info? or leave them out, reach out, and ask them to update the table via PRs?

[jmandel]

Maybe some disclaimer language that this is a best-effort compilation and that we invite PRs / feedback / corrections / additions?

[jpp9]

that would work for me

[jmandel]

This looks good to me! @jpp9 are you able to merge?

[jmandel]

I think we should merge this and we can improve it over time.

remove spaces and ampersand from the filename. suggest "verifiers-and-apps.md"
