Welcome! We have a collection of demo @pps written to help you get a head start on your @protocol journey. We recommend looking at the @pps in the followering order:

1. at_hello_world: A beginner @pp that introduces the fundamental @protocol verbs.
2. at_chats, at_cookbook: Intermediate-level applications that build on the at_hello_world app to create a messaging service as well as a cookbook.
3. @mosphere: A production-level application (included in a separate repo) that uses advanced @protocol verbs to stream large files across multiple @signs.

Creating your own @protocol application

Just like any Flutter app, an @protocol application requires a little bit of setup before you can get started. Here are those steps:

1. Add the service file to your @pp: You can simply copy this service file from the at_hello_world application. This file contains helper methods that allow you to implement @protocol functionality with just a couple lines of code.
2. Add the configuration file to your @pp: Again, feel free to copy this from the at_hello_world application. This file contains variables that allow you to use the virtual environment. Make sure that the ROOT_DOMAIN string is set to vip.ve.atsign.zone and you have a unique name for the NAMESPACE of your @pp!

We are super glad that you are beginning your journey as an @dev. We highly recommend that you join our discord dev community for troubleshooting, dev updates, and much more!
