3ID-Connect

⚠️ This package is slowly being phased out in favor of a new more decentralized system called IDX (https://idx.xyz) which is built on top of the Ceramic network. You can use it for now, but be aware that support will be limited as Ceramic is moving closer to a mainnet release.

3ID-Connect is a 3ID account management service run in an iframe. It allows you to authenicate, manage, and permission your 3ID keys to applications. Used by default in 3box-js. identity-wallet-js handles most operations and the parent window (application) communicates with iframe service over RPC layer as defined by 3ID JSON-RPC

Right now you authenticate and link ethereum accounts to mange your 3ID, in the future other keypairs, blockchain accounts, and authentication methods can be added.

3ID-Connect Ceramic

The next verion of 3ID-Connect is being developed on Ceramic and identity-wallet-js V2. It is being developed in parallel with the current version. You can find 3ID-Connect with Ceramic support in the following repo. In the future this repo will be depracated. It is released at 3id-connect@next and available at 3idconnect.org.
