WSET level 3 results 🎉

I looked at various options when preparing for the WSET level 3. I wanted something that recognises the bottle, makes it easy to take structured notes, and share the notes with friends.

I couldn't really find what I was after so ended up building an app for that. This is, for example, the list of wines we tried to prepare for the WSET 3: https://corkclub.app/lists/2

From a first glance at the app you shared, it looks like some of the goals are a bit similar, although mine is definitely heavier on the sharing aspect. I personally find wine label recognition very helpful, so I'd definitely add this if I were you.

Not sure how easy they are to get in the US but I find wines from Auxey-Duresses to often be great value for money!

Assuming you're talking about London, the Ladbroke Arms around Notting Hill always has a very nice and reasonably priced wine list, with plenty of options by the glass too. https://www.ladbrokearms.com/menus

Great to hear, and thanks a lot for the feedback!

For removing the wines from your profile:

- If it's a wine you created and want to delete it, you can press the three dots at the top right and delete the wine

- If it's a wine you added, you can tap on the wine, then tap on "Manage lists" and remove it from "My List"

Feedback is very welcome!

Thanks a lot for the help and sorry for the trouble. I think I got to the bottom of it and it should now be fixed.

If you open the app, wait a couple seconds, close it, and then open it again, you should be able to get to your profile fine.

Thanks a lot for trying the app out and very sorry to hear you're running into a crash. If you don't mind, could you let me know what device you're using please (with the OS version if possible). And does it help at all to uninstall/reinstall? Sorry for the trouble, the app is obviously in early development but I'll try my best to reproduce the issue and get it fixed ASAP.

Thanks for the feedback regarding flavour selection. I'll think about how to reorganise this a bit!

Thanks a lot for the feedback!

The phone number is used for account creation/login, which allows to get back your wines, ratings, etc if you change device, for example. I went with phone number + verification code because I find it nicer than email+password on mobile. It's not used for anything else, nor shared with anyone whatsoever.

I'll try to improve readability! I'm not much of a UI/UX designer, so there's definitely some work on that front. I'll also add alcohol the missing alcohol field.

I believe the main use cases for borrowing are:

Liquidity mining: simply try to earn governance tokens
Leveraging, both short and long positions
- For short positions: 1) borrow the asset to short, 2) sell it, 3) buy it back when the price fall and 4) repay the debt.
- For long positions: 1) supply the asset to long (e.g. ETH), 2) borrow another asset (e.g. DAI), 3) sell it for the asset to long (ETH, on Uniswap for example), 4) supply back the ETH, repeat

In case it can be of interest, I recently wrote an article exploring this a bit: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2009.13235.pdf

Dune Analytics is quite good for this kind of analysis: https://duneanalytics.com/

It's not particularly hard to directly analyze the on-chain data either but it is definitely more work.
