A list of credentials to issue and verify via a white-label UI. The credentials available via the portal are
fetched from the [walt.id credential repository](https://github.com/walt-id/waltid-credentials).

git clone https://github.com/walt-id/waltid-identity.git && cd waltid-identity
```

2. Running the project

**Option: Local**

1. Change directory

```bash
cd waltid-applications/waltid-web-portal/
```

**Note:**

  Make sure you have the `NEXT_PUBLIC_VC_REPO` variable set in `.env`.
  As default value `"https://credentials.walt.id"` can be used.

npm install
npm run dev
```

or

2. For production build
