Quick Start Guide

Getting Started with The White Web Public Domain

The White Web Public Domain provides open access to trust-based technologies governed by the ETHEOS DAO. Follow these steps to get started:

Step 1: Install the SDK

First, install the Public Domain SDK using npm, yarn, or pnpm:

npm install @thewhiteweb/public-domain-sdk

Step 2: Initialize the SDK

Create a new instance of the SDK in your application:

import { PublicDomain } from '@thewhiteweb/public-domain-sdk';

// Initialize the SDK
const pd = new PublicDomain();

// Now you can use the SDK to interact with the Public Domain
const result = await pd.tru3.verifyCredential(credential);

Step 3: Explore the Components

The Public Domain SDK provides access to several key components:

• TRU3 Protocol: For trust-based interactions with privacy-preserving verification.
• The White Pages: For accessing the tamper-proof registry of verified data.
• AO Integration: For scalable computation on the AO network.
• Arweave Storage: For permanent storage of data.

Step 4: Create Your First Application

Let's create a simple application that verifies a credential using the TRU3 Protocol:

import { PublicDomain } from '@thewhiteweb/public-domain-sdk';

async function verifyCredential() {
  // Initialize the SDK
  const pd = new PublicDomain();
  
  // Create a sample credential (in a real application, this would come from elsewhere)
  const credential = {
    id: 'credential-123',
    type: ['VerifiableCredential', 'IdentityCredential'],
    issuer: 'did:tru3:abc123',
    subject: 'did:tru3:xyz789',
    claims: {
      name: 'John Doe',
      age: 25
    },
    proof: {
      // Credential proof would be here
    }
  };
  
  // Verify the credential
  const result = await pd.tru3.verifyCredential(credential);
  
  if (result.verified) {
    console.log('Credential verified!');
    console.log('Trust score:', result.trustScore);
  } else {
    console.log('Credential verification failed:', result.reason);
  }
}

verifyCredential();

Next Steps

Now that you've created your first application, you can explore more advanced features:

• Learn how to create and issue credentials
• Explore zero-knowledge proofs for privacy-preserving verification
• Integrate with The White Pages for data discovery
• Use AO for scalable computation
• Store data permanently on Arweave
