Here's the project I'm working on for two weeks now, a passbook file generator for our EU Digital COVID Certificates. Since those passes are printed and sent by mail in my country (🇱🇺 Luxembourg) and since there's no app to store them here, I thought about the best way to fix this.
And, I thought we don't need another app to do this. To hold your certificate. We already have an app we like on our phone so let's use a format that several apps can use.
I wanted that to be as secure and trustworthy as possible. So I made it open-source (you can look at the code) and make everything possible run on the device. So I don't transmit any personal information to a remote server. We only use an AWS lambda to sign digest of the file, which Apple requires so far to let the pass be displayed in the wallet.
It's still actively in development since we collect feedback from users, and we release every 2-3 days a new version in production (you can "update" your passbook when you regenerate them).
