App List
App List
The <AppList> component displays a compact, ranked list of Cardano apps filtered by category tags. Apps are sorted by transaction count (when available), then by favorites, and finally alphabetically.
Basic Usage
<AppList
tags={['dex']}
limit={5}
categoryTitle="DEX"
/>

Props
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
tags | string[] | [] | Array of tags to filter apps (e.g., ['dex'], ['wallet', 'browser']). Empty array shows all apps. |
limit | number | 5 | Maximum number of apps to display. Set to null to show all. |

Ranking Logic
Apps are sorted in the following order:
- Apps with transaction data (sorted by transaction count, descending)
- Favorite apps (among apps without transaction data)
- Alphabetically (as final tiebreaker)

Mobile Optimization
The component is fully responsive:
- Desktop: 2-line descriptions, larger icons (56px)
- Mobile: 1-line descriptions, smaller icons (48px), compact spacing
Transaction Data
Transaction counts are sourced from /src/data/app-stats.json and matched to apps using fuzzy title matching. Apps without transaction data are still displayed but ranked lower (unless marked as favorites).
Learn how to make your app's transactions identifiable on-chain in our Transaction Rankings Guide. This helps us track and display accurate transaction counts for your app.
Icons
Apps can optionally include an icon field in /src/data/apps.js:
{
title: "Minswap Dex",
icon: "/img/app-icons/minswap.svg",
// ... other fields
}
If no icon is provided, the component displays a gradient badge with the first letter of the app name.
