Hi everyone! A major pain point for developers is cycle management (“Removal of Cycles Wallet” is currently at the number-2 spot on the DX feedback board ). We’d like to pick up work on this topic soon but would like to collect some community feedback first, of course. We currently envision the fo…

If my understanding is correct then: This would allow a user who obtained a principal through auth with II in a browser frontend, to create a canister by sending a call to the cycles ledger. (From the same frontend) The principal should hold cycles obviously. And this was not possible before, bec…

After some integration work, I think a transfer_from_and_send(Account, Amount, CanisterID) function would be great that would combine the icrc2 transfer from with the custom send. I guess going the other way, deposit_and_transfer would be cool too.
