Creating Miniapps on Seam

Miniapps are the future of sharing on social media

Create apps & games for a gen-z social network!

Seam is a social network that allows users to build and sell open-source miniapps. It provides a platform for online creatives to showcase their work, curate inspiration, and collaborate with peers.

Accepted miniapps are live on seam.so and the Seam iOS app. You'll have your code in the appstore!

Why develop a miniapp as your personal project?

• Quick Development: Build your project in an hour or less, without the hassle of hosting frameworks.

• Remix Open Source Code: Learn from and customize existing miniapps.

• Free Databases: Seam takes care of all your data storage needs.

• Find Users: Go live to everyone on Seam.

• Earn Rewards: Get paid in Seam Points each time your miniapp is unlocked.

• Join a Growing Ecosystem: Be an early adopter to the future of social networks.

What are miniapps?

The core piece of sharing on Seam is the miniapp. Miniapps are tiny playgrounds, allowing you to create content. When you’re done, you make a post. For example, the Pixel Art miniapp allows you to become a pixel artist, and then share the final masterpiece as a post.

Miniapps are React components coded in Typescript, styled with Tailwind. This means that you can use all the existing React code on the internet to get started creating your miniapp — as a bonus, ChatGPT and other AI assistants are really good at writing React code :)

Miniapps have a creation experience, and a consumption experience in the feed.
