i was going to try the desktop wallet but didnt like to download a file to my PC without verifying it.
this wallet is gaining more usage now and a lot of nano users will be using as time goes by
so its very important to have a section in the repo assets that have all file hashes of desktop wallet.
then add a small tutorial on how to verify files in all OS's
Its even better to have the hashes text signed by a known individual so adding more legitimacy

• Add hashes to release changelog
• Sign binaries

MonKey is the Banano specification of #25 Identicons.

A large version of the user's monKey should appear when looking at account details data.

Small monKeys should appear next to any address in a list of transactions for quick visual identification.

Issue

User downloads OS X zip release in versions >= 1.4.0 and is unable to execute app after unzipping.

Appears to have been introduced in v1.4.0. No issue in v1.3.0.

No issue in the dmg asset, only zip.

Workaround

It looks like the permissions to the executable file are wrong.

imac-jason:MacOS jason$ ll ~/Downloads/Nault.app/Contents/MacOS/Nault
-rw-rw-r--@ 1 jason staff 185252 Jul 4 14:00 /Users/jason/Downloads/Nault.app/Contents/MacOS/Nault

Correcting the permissions allows the app to execute properly:

imac-jason:MacOS jason$ chmod 755 /Users/jason/Downloads/Nault.app/Contents/MacOS/Nault

Fix

Probably an issue with the build actions, but I am not familiar enough to troubleshoot

Now you get a warning and has to click on that, then select the right account and a rep from a list. It's many steps for the normal user. I'm thinking if it can be done more semi-automatic with the wallet taking the action and user just approve. I think that will help with weight distribution.

For example a dialog popping up:

Your account’s representative is not optimal due to high weight. Press OK if you allow Nault to change it for you to rep XYZ. Press MANUAL if you want to select the rep yourself. Or CANCEL if you want to keep a bad rep.

Nano has 3 currency denominations.
We only need Banano (BAN)
Banoshi not required in the foreseeable future.
Image shows Display Denomination Field from Settings, which can be removed as BAN will be set fixed.

related component : configure-app

Currently the Social Media icons are located in the left hand Navigation sidebar.

• Icons may have to change for new color scheme

• Decision required where to place them when a top navigation is implemented XXX Do we want them inside the top navigation?

Also, links need to be updated: (most likely in environment.banano.ts)

• Github

• Twitter

• Discord

Each time after using Nault for a few minutes, small info windows stay incorrectly visible in other parts of the Nault application as illustrated by the red arrows in the following screenshot:

(Nault v1.3.0, desktop Windows)

The Nault logo should be replaced with a Banano-styled BaNault-Logo

• Draft or describe logo including size/format specs
• Request graphics support from Snappadoodle
• Create Banano-styled BananoNault-Logo(s)

Currently most backends are rate limited.
For UX and decentralization purposes it's better to rotate the backend at first start, when a backend goes offline or you run out of tokens.

Changing UI colors, maybe in tune with the logo, would make it look better. (not saying it's not good now)

The wallet currently uses transport-node-hid for electron and transport-u2f for web.

Looking at the table over at ledger-js it seems like a good choice but with an annoying window popping up in windows. Maybe it can be improved, maybe not. Maybe web-usb can be utilized for better stability, but currently only supported in chrome.

Anyway, if any developer want to give it a try to increase stability, feel free! I will probably not touch this.

Maybe show the suggested list of reps instead?

Transaction dates are often not displayed correctly at Nault startup. [Reload] or [Force Reload] will sometimes correct the date column but will also inconsistently revert dates back to the wrong ones:

Comparison of transaction dates, incorrect data encircled in red on the left and the correct dates are visible on the right.

Only transactions on or before 2020-05-10 (May 10th) seem to be affected, these transactions are all incorrectly time-stamped 2020-05-10. I have tested 6 different accounts and 4 different wallets (including one Nano Ledger X) on 3 different systems, all displaying the same behavior.

(Nano Desktop v1.5.2 on Windows 10 Home v2004, Windows 10 Pro v1909 and Linux Mint v20 (Cinnamon) )

• Identify terms that require translation
• Create list of terms and i18n variables to be used (=contexts in POEditor)
• Define contexts
• Define references
• Enter terms,contexts, references into POEditor
• Pull en (default) JSON (format TBD. most likely key-value term-message)
• Create folders with placeholder JSON

This is a known bug with Ledger+windows but it should not appear when going to the "Configure new wallet" screen. Only when connecting the ledger. So while the popup issue itself can't be solved right now, it certainly can be improved.

As some API endpoints have rate limiting I think it makes more sense to receive pending sorted by amount instead of timestamp. That would solve the issue for accounts with hundreds of incoming that would like to save the small amounts for later. Or if the PoW takes a long time (it will be 8x slower later on).

Today, Nault is based on the Nano color scheme and not Banano.
Banano sites use a darker color scheme with yellow highlights.

Official colors

• Edit colors in the banano less theme src/less/banano/nault-theme.less

• and components in src/less/banano/componenets/*

• additional .less components as required
• bootstrap or other .css as required

Add possibility to send all funds from a wallet, so you don't have to send manually from every account

With the emergence of Ripples PayID protocol it might make sense to consider adding support.

I think it would be great to have support for multiple languages. It lowers the barrier to join the Nano world for non fluent english speakers.

Angular ships with i18n support. More information can be found here: https://angular.io/guide/i18n

If noone started on this already I think I will probably sooner or later start working on this.

I am unsure if this is new to Nault or is an inherited issue from Nano Vault.

A few services have added these Natricon cartoon characters that have divided the Nano community. Please don't add them, but add nice looking identicons instead.

A [hidden?] page that grabs node information from the RPC could be used for some quick troubleshooting, or general information for those using a custom backend node. Maybe some of them are useful in other pages.

Some useful stats, as usually:

• Block and uncemented count from RPC block_count
• Which network: main(live) / beta from RPC version
• Telemetry things from RPC telemetry using optionals address and port to target only the local node information. Unfortunately it would be necesssary to assume (or config option) the local peering port (7075 main net, 54000 beta). Will take a look into potesntially making this simpler for V22.

We have some wallets that work with private keys, like Exodus, I think it's important to have this option, both on the web wallet and on the desktop. NanoVault implemented it in its web version.

All instances of the 'Nault' wording should be replaced with 'BananoNault'

Probably purely done through config.
To be considered in translations as well though.

It would be cool to run Nault on a PC without a internet connection and show the signed block instead of seding it directly to the node. The current implementations require building your block manually.

Could be useful if you run a node on a remote server and want to point Nault to it over https and with authentication required. For example, using NanoRPCProxy as middleware.

Reference: https://tixwallet.cc/#/node

Both the buttons "Import from file" in "Configure new wallet" and "import address book" in "manage wallet" has stopped working. No response. I tried to fix it but no luck. It seems to refuse to open the file dialog. Both web and desktop.

Edit: Also, all radiobuttons and checkboxes stopped working but the issue has been identified and will be pushed soon.

The subtype field is a nice safety net, and may prevent certain problems if a bug is introduced in block construction. I guess the internal process api signature would need a change, since it only takes a block and subtype is a sibling field.

In certain cases, the rep won't change on a connected Ledger. There is a successful message but nothing changes. This needs to be investigated. Reported for the desktop wallet 1.5.0 (windows).

Add a drop down menu that allows to switch between wallets (different seeds)

Nault allows for creating multiple accounts within a wallet. Multiple wallets however are not yet supported. Only one wallet can be active at a time.

Furthermore when importing a wallet, the following message is displayed:

Of course, the existing wallet and accounts are safe (assuming one has saved the corresponding seed) but as only one wallet can be active at a time the current wallet is overwritten as mentioned by the next message:

This may seem to contradict the sentence "none of your existing wallets or accounts are affected" from the previous message.

(Nault v1.3.0, desktop Windows)

The used Angular version is 5 and is not supported anymore.
It would be better to update it to a more recent version.
The process could break features!

On full screen

On any other device (missing account and button to the right)

• Create project
• Select languages
• Define terms - linked to #85
• Assign translators

This is related to #29 but a correctly built sweeper can not only import any funds from any seed to deposit into the Nault wallet, but also if using your current Nault wallet as source seed and an external account it could also empty the whole wallet with one single click. Double functionality which I don't think any other wallet has.

I want to build this if no one tells me not to. Will probably allow any custom range of index to check (with limitation) similar to this tool: https://tools.nanos.cc/?tool=sweep

The List of Representatives (Settings... Representatives) must show Banano reps.
Suggesting to have at least 5 "unofficial" reps (community-run nodes) from https://creeper.banano.cc/network to foster further distribution of voting weight.

Default representatives list is in /src/app/services/representative.service.ts
now maintained in src/environments/environment.banano.ts

https://realfavicongenerator.net/ provides a service which creates a bundle of favicons to support for as many platforms/browsers as possible.

• Agree on Folder location for Banano favicons #98

• Upload favicon package to /src/themes/banano/assets/favicon

All instances of the 'Nano' wording should be replaced with 'Banano'

(PENDING agreement for location and handling of Banano specific components)

Wording change tracking for modules: (tick if you have completed one)
Ideally done in the same step as the first 2 activities in #85

• account-details
• accounts
• address-book
• change-rep-widget
• configure-app
• configure-wallet
• helpers
• import-address-book
• import-wallet
• manage-representatives
• manage-wallet
• notifications
• qr-scan
• receive
• representatives
• send
• sweeper
• transaction-details
• wallet-widget

Any donation addresses should be changed (TBD)

The uk-panel uk-panel-scrollable div is resizable, but it shouldn't be.

I added this button for deep link support (on the receive screen). That usually works to open an account in another wallet but I don't think it's working for Nault since Nault wants to open itself since it's a wallet. Does it make any sense at all to have it? Or should I remove it again? @BitDesert
