Introducing the Lens SDK – your new go-to toolkit to create powerful experiences & applications for the social layer of Web3. Developers rejoice! We have lowered the barrier to entry and made it easier than ever to create innovative, powerful, and engaging Lens apps and experiences. With the new Lens SDK you can plug into the Web3 social layer with just 10 lines of code. Pick and choose the features you want - only the components you use contribute to the final size of your app bundles. These capabilities are all handled by the Lens SDK, allowing developers to focus on their core features. The SDK is modular and composable. It seamlessly integrates with other Web3 projects, protocols, and tools such as @litprotocol.lens to enable token-gated publications. Mobile apps have been some of the biggest success stories on Lens. The new SDK doubles down on mobile support, starting with React Native. With the SDK, you can build polished mobile apps without underlying knowledge of the Lens API or Lens Protocol. Come build the future on the social layer of Web3. Get started in our dev docs: https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/sdk-react-intro and dive into our latest blog here: https://mirror.xyz/lensprotocol.eth/LtJBLD6zX_P9EYdsJ2DrT9RaCbiE2vvtajF4Md6wHr0
Lit Privacy SDK: Overcome limitations of existing ZK proof technologies and deploy privacy solutions effortlessly for decentralized governance and more... The Lit Privacy SDK leverages Lit Actions and Programmable Key Pairs to make on-chain transactions private, based on proof of identity and proof of membership. This innovative solution aims to improve privacy in decentralized governance and other applications where privacy is crucial. Are you an ENS holder? You can try out the demo today! https://spark.litprotocol.com/enabling-private-on-chain-txns/ built by the Curve Labs team, written by Mihir (https://github.com/codebuster22?ref=spark.litprotocol.com)
you can now encrypt and store data on IPFS in a single call through the Lit TS SDK use the function `encryptToIPFS` and that's it! This merges two steps together - encrypting and then storing on a decentralized database into one step. read more about it here: https://spark.litprotocol.com/encrypttoipfs/ let us know if you have any questions 🙂

This year was good for me on a personal and professional level and I am excited to enter into the new year in a few days. Some of the projects I would like to build next year will include... 1. Distribute Lens collection earnings to audience (followers) using @superfluid.lens. This will be my immediate next project which I aim to build before the end of this year and launch it early next year. Content creators can reward their followers for supporting them with a share of their earnings and all that the creators have to do is to specify the amount/percentage to share. Rest is taken care of by automation and Superfluid Protocol 👀. 2. Premium content subscription on Lens protocol using @litprotocol.lens and @superfluid.lens. I along with @0xfran.lens and a couple of others (whose Lens profile I don't know) created a PoC at #ETHIndia at the start of this year. Essentially, this allows a creator to post premium content on Lens protocol which can only be accessed by subscribers who "stream" a certain number tokens (USDCx for now) to the creators every month (technically every second if you know Superfluid 😉). BTW, this project can use the mechanism described in the first idea in this post. 3. Gated content subscriptions using @superfluid.lens (I think from this point onwards I should stop tagging Superfluid because it's implicitly involved anyway 😅) Though this is possible to do this now, I am focusing on making more integrations. One of them being @paragraph.lens. Creators can now token gate their blogs/newsletters only accessible to subscribers streaming tokens to the creators. 4. Enhanced Lens protocol and Twitter bridge. I know there already exists one created by the awesome @m1guelpf.lens but I have some mods in my mind and would like to experiment by forking and contributing to the already built out bridge. 5. Continue building DeSIP. I was building a systematic investment plans product for subscribing to different funds in different DeFi protocols and there exists a version of this built on top of the dHEDGE protocol. I will probably release this later next year so that anyone can use it or experiment with it. If anyone wants to help me out by collaborating on some of these projects, reply to this post! If you like any of these ideas, plz don't "steal" any of these 😂.
So excited to be here!
