The OWND Project is a non-profit project that aims to realize more trustworthy communication through the social implementation of individual-centered digital identities.
This project was created as part of the "Trusted Web" use case demonstration project promoted by the Digital Market Competition Headquarters, Cabinet Secretariat.
We will develop a white-label digital identity wallet that complies with international standards and a federated messaging application that supports E2E encryption as open source software, and discuss governance to ensure trust.
OWND Project Briefing Material
The OWND Project VCI provides a reference implementation of a web application compliant with the OpenID for Verifiable Credential Issuance (OID4VCI) standard protocol for issuing Verifiable Credentials.
For more details on the OID4VCI specification, visit OpenID for Verifiable Credential Issuance.
This repository contains three web applications:
- My Number Card Information VCI App
- Employee ID VCI App
- Event Participation Certificate VCI App
Each application offers the following features:
This project currently strong depends on Koa as a web application framework and sqlite3 as a persistence layer. If you use this project to develop your applications, you are required to use these library. In the future, we are considering eliminating our strong dependence and making the core VCI implementation available on its own.
- A REST API to issue My Number card information as a Verifiable Credential (VC).
- A REST API to register employee information.
- A REST API to generate a Credential Offer for issuing an employee ID VC.
- A REST API to issue the employee ID as a VC.
- A REST API to register event participation information.
- A REST API to generate a Credential Offer for issuing an event participation certificate VC.
- A REST API to issue the event participation certificate as a VC.
- A REST API to generate and register a VC Issuer's key pair.
- A REST API to register the Issuer's key pair in X509 format.
Make sure you have Node.js version 18 or later installed. You can use nvm
(Node Version Manager) to install and use the required Node.js version:
nvm install stable --latest-npm
nvm use 18
To start the application, first ensure that a .env
file is prepared for each application with the appropriate settings. (Please see the README within each directory for configuration details.) Then, navigate to the directory of each application and run the following command:
yarn start
For detailed instructions on how to use each application, please refer to the README within each app's directory.
