The <strong>Frames Protocol</strong>, also known <strong>Farcaster Frames</strong>, is a simple web-based technology used for making applications.

Although the <strong>Frames Protocol</strong> <em>could</em> be used outside of <strong>Farcaster</strong>, at the time of writing, <strong>Farcaster</strong> clients are the only major (client-side) platform to support it.

<h2>HTML <code><meta></code> Element</h2>

|

When creating a <strong>Frames Protocol</strong> application, you can effectively ignore almost all of <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> except for one <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> element — the <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> <meta> element.
|
||||
The <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> <code><meta></code> element has been around since the 1990s.

The <strong>Frames Protocol</strong> only uses the <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> <meta> element.
|
||||
And it (the <strong>Frames Protocol</strong>) uses the <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> <meta> element in a very particular way.
|

If you look at the old <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> 2.0 specification (i.e., <a href="https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1866">IETC RFC-1866</a> in <a href="https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1866#section-5.2.5">section 5.2.5.</a>), which was created back in the 1990s, you can see how the <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> <code><meta></code> element was defined back then.

The "<code>og</code>" part (in "<code>og:title</code>", "<code>og:type</code>", "<code>og:image</code>", and "<code>og:url</code>") is short for "OpenGraph".
|
||||
And thus all these <a href="https://ogp.me/">OpenGraph</a> names are namespaced.

<h2>Frames <code><meta></code></h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The <strong>Frames Protocol</strong> defines its own list of name-value pairs also using the <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> <code><meta></code> element, similar to <a href="https://ogp.me/">OpenGraph</a>.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
When creating a <strong>Frames Protocol</strong> application, you <strong>MUST</strong> include these:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li><code>fc:frame</code></li>
|
||||
<li><code>fc:frame:image</code></li>
|
||||
<li><code>og:image</code></li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
(Note that the last required name is from <a href="https://ogp.me/">OpenGraph</a>!
|
||||
Where the first two have been created by the <strong>Frames Protocol</strong>.)
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Here is an example of these in <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> <code><meta></code> elements:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<figure>
|
||||
<pre><code>
|
||||
<meta property="fc:frame" content="vNext" />
|
||||
<meta property="fc:frame:image" content="/images/4aigvXF62jMY8iRzFN8x.jpeg" />
|
||||
<meta property="og:image" content="/images/4aigvXF62jMY8iRzFN8x.jpeg" />
|
||||
</code></pre>
|
||||
</figure>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Or the same in a more fjll <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> document:
