Idea of Developing Dapp without MetaMask Or Any Other Similar Extensions

Question

so far so many Dapp developers have made so many Dapps which are integrated with MetaMask or other similar extensions like Parity and Web3.js.

Is there any idea or suggestion about developing one without all those extensions mentioned above ?

Thank you.

Answer 1

There are mostly two reasons these extensions exist:

The user shouldn't need to trust the website to provide their. blockchain data source, and more importantly, users should never have to trust a web app with their account's private key.

Of course you can make sites without those guarantees, but to do that kind of misses the point of decentralizing trust.

Answer 2

I've recently came across a project in alpha: https://fortmatic.com

It gets rid of the need to use DApps without extensions. Docs seems pretty good, was able to get things working pretty fast. It triggers a modal in an iframe for user auth (similar to Stripe or Plaid) - imo this feels like a better ux as the end users never have to leave the main dapp experience
