Description

We need to finalize the names for the render method categories. These are the categories what we have at the moment, along with the different names that have been suggested for them:

  • Issuer provides a static resource in the credential that should be directly consumed/displayed by the holder wallet. Naming ideas thus far:
    • static
    • baked
    • preBaked
  • Holder wallet transforms credential to key/value data entries and displays it. Naming ideas thus far:
    • item
    • data
    • overview
    • field
    • list
    • viewData
    • jsonCard
  • Issuer provides a template resource that is populated by credential data. Naming ideas thus far:
    • html
    • sandbox
    • template

We will keep this issue open to allow for additional suggestions and encourage folks to provide their preferences. If we can't reach consensus in this issue, we may need to run a ranked-choice vote on a future call.

Start with issue #55 and review the three render method category definitions and their proposed names. Compare the options against each category and the existing discussion, then contribute to the consensus process. Done means each category has an agreed final name recorded in the issue or specification.
