description: Manifold is an NFT creator tools platform that empowers artists and developers to deploy their own creator-owned
  smart contracts, mint NFTs, and build custom on-chain experiences without relying on platform-specific custody. Founded
  in 2021, Manifold provides a no-code studio (Manifold Studio) for ERC721 and ERC1155 contract deployment, open-source Creator
  Core smart contracts, a Royalty Registry adopted by all major NFT marketplaces, and a Client SDK for building custom minting
  dApps. The platform supports Ethereum Mainnet, Base, Optimism, Shape, Apechain, and Sepolia testnet. Manifold also exposes
  server-side authentication APIs (Signature Grant and Authorization Code Grant via oauth2.manifoldxyz.dev), a Studio Apps
  REST API (apps.api.manifoldxyz.dev) for product and minting data, open-source Solidity extension contracts for custom mint
  mechanics, and a Marketplace contract powering auction and fixed-price listings. Gas fees are the only cost for creators;
  Manifold charges no platform fees or royalties on sales.

    modify private user data without exposing session keys client-side. Requires a Developer App configured at the Manifold
    Developer Portal.'
