A basic starter wallet template for the community to build on.

As we all know, the current Bitshares wallet is a bit of a behemoth, that's why I've decided to make and open source a very basic Bitshares wallet template. This template can be forked by anyone and used to create specialised/branded interfaces for Bitshares. You can find the template here:

Simplified login

The wallet makes use of a new feature I've added to the graphenejs-lib: Account login. This is the same type of login used by Steemit, where a private key is generated on the fly from your account name and password. This means nothing is stored in your browser, and no private data is sent over the wire. This login feature could be reused by any number of wallets and you could then login everywhere using the account name and password.

Since your account name and password become your brain key in this case, it is important that you use a very long password, 16 characters at least. Remember: there's no centralised method of recovery so make sure you remember your password!

Transfer

The wallet currently only supports making transfers, and it connects to the Bitshares testnet. If you want to try it out, you can go to http://svk31.github.io/bitshares-wallet-template
