id.ly

id.ly

The majority of user data today is stored on massive, server-centric systems that are often vulnerable to data breaches. id.ly is a cross-platform app developed to implement a self-sovereign identity system. id.ly uses an RSA public-key cryptosystem to share business cards and messages using encrypted json files. Users connect to each other via bluetooth and can be assured that the information shared is genuine and verified, since every user has full control over their data and with whom they choose to share it.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine. This app has not been released to either the Apple App Store or Google Play so at this time can only be run in development mode.

Installing

Clone a copy of the repository into your local machine. Run npm install to install the node.js packages.

Running the app

For best results for permormance and testing, apps should be launched from either Android Studio or Xcode. However, simulators may also be used.

Sometimes you may need to reset or clear the React Native packager's cache. To do so, you can pass the --reset-cache flag to the start script:

npm start --reset-cache
# or
yarn start --reset-cache

react-native run-ios

Attempts to open the app in the iOS Simulator if you're on a Mac and have it installed.

react-native run-android

Attempts to open the app on a connected Android device or emulator. Requires an installation of Android build tools (see React Native docs for detailed setup).

Running Tests

Snapshot testing functionality was built into this project using jest test framework. Run using npm test and snapshots will be generated in the components folder under __tests__. Update changed snapshots using npm test -- -u.
