Hey everyone,
We want to share with you that we continue to make solid progress in the development of the Generic Polkadot App and we are excited to share the latest updates with you.
Recent Developments:
This past month, as anticipated, we managed to complete and have ready the following points:
-
JS Communication package: Done, we will make it public soon.
-
Extended testing coverage to most pallets and parachains: We have tested all pallets of Polkadot/Kusama, Statemine/Statemint, and other parachains.
-
Incorporating metadata into signatures: Parity has provided a branch based on Rococo GitHub - paritytech/polkadot-sdk at bkchr-metadata-hash
What’s Next:
Now, with these achievements, we’re moving forward to the following areas:
-
Development of the Migration App: this will allow to unlock and move funds that are currently in existing Ledger applications.
-
Integration with Web Wallets and Ledger Live: conversations are currently on going
-
Third-Party Security Audit, which we plan to start coordinating in the coming weeks.
-
A guide for Parachains, to add the changes needed on the runtime to be able to use the generic app. This needs RFC 46 (see below) to be approved so that there’s a specification document ready.
In order to add this functionality to the Polkadot Runtime, the team has opened RFC #46. We kindly request the fellows to take a look at this and provide feedback so that this can be improved and added to the Polkadot Runtime.
