> [@anon85132706](#): > > As I understand, seamless interoperability and data portability is one of the key advantages/promises of Solid. However, I have the impression that the effort put into making it a reality is not proportional to it’s importance. Hi @anon85132706 - there’s actually considerable effort put forth in this area. I’d encourage you to look over the work underway in the [data interoperability panel](https://github.com/solid/data-interoperability-panel/), in particular the [draft specification on application interoperability](https://solid.github.io/data-interoperability-panel/specification/). We recently did some live presentations that were recorded (note that each are 90 minutes long - but they cover the vast majority of the draft spec): - [Application Interoperability Walkthrough - Part 1](https://solid-interop-public.s3.amazonaws.com/application-interoperability-walkthrough-part-1.mp4) - [Application Interoperability Walkthrough - Part 2](https://solid-interop-public.s3.amazonaws.com/application-interoperability-walkthrough-part-2.mp4) If this is a topic you’re interested in - you’d be most welcome at the weekly [panel session](https://github.com/solid/data-interoperability-panel/#meetings). --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.solidproject.org/t/a-community-tool-for-interoperability/4291)._
