A card is a record. A record needs a real key behind it — no throwaway identity here. Three ways in, easiest first. Use the one you already have. The last two come back on their own next visit; the secret-key rung never does.

No key yet?

Skip the next one. Install a browser extension — nos2x or Alby — and let it make a key for you. Then come back to the rung it points at.

Secret key

Paste your secret key here if you are brave and have a stomach of steel… yeah, don't do that with your nostr key.

Or even better — use a throwaway key!

start here

Browser extension

An add-on in your browser holds your key. You click, it signs. Your key never touches this page. nos2x · Alby · Nostore · NIP-07

Remote signer

Your key lives on your phone or another device. Every signature asks that device first — you approve it there. Paste the bunker:// address your signer app shows you. NIP-46

2the card

One fact per card. The collection is the timeline it joins — pick an existing one or type a new slug, which is all it takes to start one.

edit one of your cards (loads it back into this form; publishing replaces it)

collection — the timeline this joins. Required.

title — the event, no year prefix

its address

event date — when it happened. Required. Type what you know: 2003, 2003-07 or 2003-07-14. summary — optional, your plain-words gloss; the viewer can show this instead of the record content · djot — one factual sentence, blank line, then Source: [label](url). Bare URLs do not autolink.

3revises another card — optional

Leave this alone for an ordinary card. Pick a card here and yours becomes a revision of it: the viewer draws the lineage, and if your content carries djot marks — {-removed-} and {+added+} — it renders as a diff against what that card said.

revise a card that isn't in the list

These are what actually get published; the picker above just fills them in. Both halves are required — the coordinate survives an edit of the target, the event id pins the exact version you revised.

its d its author's pubkey — 64 hex; blank = your own key that version's event id — 64 hex
