Add a Data Wallet feature

[timbl]

At the moment you can use Solid-OS to edit your public profile, but also you add Application-level things like AddressBooks, Meetings, Issue Trackers, and so on. Meanwhile, there has arisen a lot of talk about Wallets. In no particular order,

• There is frustration that Apple Wallets and Google Wallets are not compatible
• People started using the terms Solid Pod and Data Wallet interchangeably, but also
• You can gave a Wallet as a subset of a Pod, one container
• The Open Wallet Foundation is a looking at making open source wallet code
• Inrupt produced and open source /solid-data-wallet

Let's add Wallet code to SolidOS so you can make a Wallet juist like

• Wallets can be public or private or shared
• Items in a wallet can be public or or shared independently
• Propose we put a type index pointer using the term solid:DataWallet
• Make the wallet contents compatible with the inrupt code
• By default put a new wallet in /Wallet but always use the type index to find it
• Add a scrollable set of public cards to the public profile. (scroll cards at right angles to main profile scroll)
• Use the profile pane code as a basis to share look and feel and code architecture

There is s brain dump of related things.

Just finished a bunch of work on did and VerifiableCredentials, so I’m now ready to start implementing this. We’ve needed something like it for SolidPay for quite a while.

A few thoughts:

• solid:DataWallet sounds good — though I wonder whether solid:Wallet might be more natural?
• Conventionally, we avoid starting terms with a capital letter like Wallet. Other OSs (like Ubuntu) do capitalize folder names, but in solid file systems it’s a bit of a pain — I think lowercase wallet might work better here.
• I’d also like to target Linked Web Storage eventually
• Is /Wallet a container, document or thing -- solution: pick one -- EDIT: probably Thing works best

Curious what others think — especially what types of things we expect to store in a wallet to begin with?
