Is this a mini-app? What is a mini-app?

This morning, I saw a Paragraph post from Eric Rhodes in my Warpcast feed. Instead of being taken to Safari, I was able to read it in-app—Paragraph’s mini-app in action. It struck me how seamless this experience was, showcasing the potential for mini-apps on Warpcast. In contrast to the usual context-switching between apps, the mini-app allowed me to stay within the platform while interacting with content, all without leaving the feed.What Are Mini-Apps?Mini-apps are lightweight applications ...

By way of filter, here is a list of projects I use on a weekly basis if not more frequent. Warpcast - @dwr.eth, FounderWhere I read soc...
