Vega Wallet (Feedback required)

bnogal

I am working in porting the SDK to C++. To try out the SDK implementation, i am also working in a wallet that uses this SDK

By the moment the wallet is on alpha state, it is using the TEST network so you can't use it for real porpouse, but it may help people to test how stellar performs and it will help me to get a feedback. I want to be sure it is perfect for the use.

The official post is in the official forum: https://galactictalk.org/d/360-c-sdk-and-based-on-that-a-multiplatform-wallet-vega-wallet

You can try it by the moment under windows and android, i will prepare a version for ios later, if i see that people like it. Linux users will get it in some days, when i go back from holidays.

To access it:

Android. Download it form the store:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.bnogal.vega Or if you want to help me to test the last version, sign up for alpha in this link and download it from play store https://play.google.com/apps/testing/org.bnogal.vega

Windows (same interface than the one for phones, i will make a desktop version later on) https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0SAlpZ9XooJUklTVlZTTkkycU0

Linux https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0SAlpZ9XooJSUREYUdwbnlLTWM

Repository to the SDK source code: https://bitbucket.org/bnogal/stellarqore

You can write your feedback here, i will keep an eye to this thread.

It is taking a bit of time to add new functionallities as i am developing both, the SDK in C++ and this wallet using it. But my aim is not to get the best wallet out there "right now" but get into stellar new developers making more software. So people testing this wallet will be testing the C++ SDK i am working in and may facilitate other developers start new projects. I took the hard way, but this way i can learn each small detail of stellar, and hope i can bring the best of it.

A brief of news:

Current functions:

Generate wallet. (some devices produces insecure random numbers, so i mix them with "human noise") Import/Export wallet. Send/Receive transactions, using QR codes or contacts. Fund other wallets. Set a password to save and use your wallet. Encryption of the wallet. Create a contact list. Resolve federations.

UPDATES

Update 04/07/2017 1.0704

Fixed an error when sending fractional amounts. History now get updated by pull event, this way you can access older elements or refresh for new ones. Button to refresh account balance. Button to fund the account. Useful for testing as we are in the test network. Improved usability.

Update 14/07/2017 1.0714

Auto refresh when a transfer is received using stellar stream protocol. Option to choose QR mode: Compatible encodes in ASCII format, Fast makes smaller QR codes. Text can be selected on contacts window and export wallet. Warnings when address or password are incorrect.

Update 28/07/2017 1.0726

Federation support. Button to switch to the public network. Use it carefully. Wallet is now encrypted if a password is set. Wallets were and are stored in the android application private area, so - they can't be accessed easily. Now they are also encrypted, just in case as a second protection.

Update 07/08/2017 1.0807

Fixed an error in the SDK that caused errors sending transactions with memos. Option to select memo type. Removed button to refresh wallet, no needed anymore as streaming updates is working properly

Anything for iOS or OS X?

bnogal

It is done on Qt, so it should compile also for iOS/OS X /iWatch/Universal Windows Platform

To compile for iOS / OS X /iwatch i need a mac and to publish it on the apple store a developer licence. I was checking to rent an online instance to compile it, but people around me believe i am losing the time with this. So it is already a big thing i keep working on it after 9 hours in my normal job.

Anyway, the main point here is the SDK, anyone can use the SDK i am working in to build applications for apple.

@"bnogal"#828 Curious to see if there's any news on this project?

Yes, there are updates, but i am updating the threads silently :P I did an update of the wallet to support different types of memos. I am also working on the SDK, including more operations (you can check the commits) and doing a proposal about QR encoding. Next week i will be less busy and i will give a big push to the SDK. The wallet will stay as it is for some weeks until i am done with the SDK, that is for me the priority.

For the wallet, in the long term, - I will rethink the navigation. - I will add each functionality of the SDK (that is the reason of the first point) - I also want to pack the application with a compilation of Qt using "Qt Lite" (to strip off everything i don't use) that can leave an installed app of around 7MB (now it is ~30MB installed ~10MB download) it should make the app (and any app done with the SDK) to startup faster, spend less RAM and less battery than other alternatives (if it is not already) That is the magic of C++ and of not having a HTML DOM under me.

It's a the long way to the top, if you wanna rock'n'roll :slight_smile:
