chainBB Mobile App?
I have been using chainBB for quite a while now, especially because I like how the content is organized. I think that, based on how the content is structured, chainBB would benefit from a mobile app.
Is a mobile app in the works? If so, is there some sort of estimate of when it would be released?
Thanks :)
It's a good idea. 💭
Definitely agree! I think it would increase usage of the site :D
I'm still planning out the website hah, the project is just over a month or two old at this point :)
Many people have requested a mobile app, and while I have nothing planned yet, it sounds like it needs to happen. If I get to the point where I can hire a team of developers to work with me on this project - a mobile development team will be a must.
Oh wow it's only been a month or two and it already looks like this? Excited about the features it can have in the future, including the mobile app!
Do you somehow have a page for suggestions? I have some ideas I would like to share.
The chainBB Suggestions Forum would be the ideal place for ideas and ways to make the site better. It's a sub-forum of the chainBB project forum.
Lookin forward to seeing what you've been thinking!
Thanks! Will draft up some recommendations and post them when I can :)
lol it must get busier and busier for you xd.
Yeah I can see how it would get hectic. Very excited about a mobile app, but definitely don't want @jesta to get sick or something.
This is awesome! Hope we can see the mobile app soon!! Don't rush, just take your time :)
Absolutely agree with this! Very excited about a mobile app, but definitely don't want @jesta to get sick or something :)
Agreed. A mobile app would be great for this site, I have yet to see a good iOS STEEM app. Does anyone know of any?
I think an example of a good iOS STEEM app is eSTEEM, made by @good-karma. I was looking at its repository, and it looks like it was made with Ionic, with is a mobile development framework based on Angular (or AngularJS? correct me if I am wrong it has been a while since I played with Ionic): https://github.com/eSteemApp/esteem
Thanks I will have to try it out!
You're welcome!
Yeah I feel like developer resources are still relatively scarce, making it difficult to develop apps. Unless you're building your mobile app with a mobile framework that's based on JavaScript or Python, you might have to build a Swift/Java/Kotlin API to the blockchain.
the crypto-space is ever evolving :)
That's true. There's a lot of people in the Steem community, and I assume a good chunk of them are advanced developers, such as @jesta.
I'm a developer myself, but when it comes to mobile/web dev, I'm relatively a beginner. I'd like to develop Steem apps in the future as well, as I learn more and more about it.
I am not much of a developer at all but I am always learning and trying to take things in. There's SO MUCH to know
Learning never ends :) If you're interested in web/mobile development, definitely recommend https://www.freecodecamp.com/
A lot of people have learned through that site. There's a lot of practical exercises and projects, plus you get certifications.
Bookmarked ! Thank you so much that looks awesome
You're welcome! Software engineering skills, including web/mobile development, is highly valuable.
All the best!
I would really like to see chainbb available in a mobile app too.
Haha yes good to see more people who would like a mobile app!
can't wait for mobile apps, but even the apps browser works fine :)
really want to have one
