Where Is Steemconnect's Documentation??

in #steem5 years ago

I am working on a new project, and I want to add support for the Steem blockchain. I remember 1 year ago, when I was learning to work with the Steem blockchain, Steemconnect was simple to use. The documentation was not the best, but I could work with.

But after a few months working privately, now that I am back working on my own projects, I am looking at Steemconnects website and I can find absolutely nothing about how to get started!

I know, working with cutting edge new technology is risky, because things change too fast, but c'mon, where am I supposed to get started?

I have download that "desktop app", but it is an exact copy of the useless website...
I am managing to get work done by reading my own tutorials I wrote a few months ago, but c'mon steemconenct team, are you building something for people to sue, or for yourselves?

Yeah, the interface looks cool, it is simple, but it is too simple! To the point it has no information whatsoever.
Simplicity is BAD when it it prioritized over usability.

Want to see an interface that is packed with content (so not minimalist), but is EXTREMELY HELPFUL?

Right off the bat, on the main page, you find a lot of information on what his tool does, you have a clue about how to get information and where.

Fun fact:
Steemconencts page is so complicated (because of the exagerated minimalism) that they even wrote "You’ve found the SteemConnect developer documentation!", like if it is an achievement to find the documentation (if they can call this documentation).

If anyone else is trying to find the tools to get started on how to use Steemconnect API. Here is what you should be looking for
https://github.com/bonustrack/steemconnect.js

By going there you don't have to click on every link on the Steemconnect page trying to figure out where is the file for your client, and what are the commands you can do.
By looking at the link you can find if Steemconnect does or does not have what you are looking for and what your project needs.
