This is a good idea:
NUD: Pubkey to colors
This NUD defines how to convert pubkey to colors.
Live demo
Why?
npub is nonsense to display.
npub1bla...bla is nonsense to display.
npub1 takes too much space.... means nothing.
Specs
- Uses hex pubkey.
- Converts 64 characters to 8 colors.
- Splits 64 with 8 length chunks.
- Converts each 2 in 8 into
- Alpha (0-255 -> 0.0-1.0)
- Hue (0-255 -> 0.0-360.0)
- Saturation (0-255 -> 0.0-1.0)
- Light (0-255 -> 0.0-1.0)
- Supports dark and light theme.
- When Light is 1.0, flip the Light for light theme (0.0).
I still think it makes sense to display npub1...abcdef when no name is found, but having a standard color for each npub across apps would be a very nice thing.
