Summary

You can now use Nostr-powered web apps on the wild web without having to type private keys. Using nos2x your keys never leave the extension.

Apps can seamlessly request you to sign them manually by calling window.nostr.signEvent(). That will open a prompt popup in which you can authorize access.

Access is granted to full domains and can be granted temporarily, just a single time, or forever.
