Re: [Email-to-DID Bridge] Exploring a practical migration path for email infrastructure

Hi All,

Is there a builder community somewhere on Discord or elsewhere for the DID ecosystem?
I know there is lots of specs and formal introductions. I am looking for the hacker path.

I am exploring building a comprehensive stack around DID in the open and need guidance to optimize my time.

Ideally I am looking for a page of the best open source implementations for each aspect as I want to integrate these to show where the ecosystem is at.

My goal is to highlight the patterns and then how they are implemented in various libraries and systems.
 
If such a page does not exist I will create one but it would be nice to be provided with a ton of links from the community I can curate.

I have a discord server I am building out and might start a DID hacker community if there is no better place.

Christoph
