Frames Introduction

Frames are a way to build interactive apps that run directly in a Farcaster social feed.

They can be used to create rich in-feed experiences for web applications:

  • NFTS shared from Zora and Highlight can be minted in-feed
  • Newsletters shared from Paragraph can read inline and subscribed to in-feed
  • Markets shared from Polymarket let users place bets in-feed

Or standalone experiences like polls and games:

  • spot and mint wild animals on a live-feed of a watering hole in the Namib Desert with Safaricaster
  • make an onchain payment to another user with Paybot
  • RSVP to an Eventcaster event
  • Yoink the flag in this simple yet viral social game
  • generate a Waifu NFT based on your Farcaster profile

Frames are evolving!

We're working on a new Frames standard to enable even better in-feed experiences. You can choose to build on the stable v1 standard, or the experimental v2.

Warpcast will continue to support Frames v1 through at least March 2025.
