RE: Steem development #1: First step into developing an app with the Steem Blockchain
Sure, no problem. Thanks for the quick turnaround - will look into JS over the next few days. Do you think people prefer a JS environment using NPM to install dependencies, or just a CDN link style tutorial?
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by a "CDN link style tutorial". But I'm very familiar and comfortable with NPM and would probably prefer that. Even though it's easy to run into version-mismatch issues with NPM installs (which I suspect also to be the case in my Ruby install for your current tutorial).
Ok, sounds good. By CDN, I mean sometime you see people just make a
htmlfile and dump<script src="...">instead of using npm to manage packages and the such, which obviously doesn't work well for anything other than a basic introduction to a new lib.Sounds good, I'd rather do things the right way and use npm to manage packages, maybe webpack to bundle or something.
Wonderful! NPM, webpack etc is the way to go for anything beyond the trivial.
BTW, I'm happy to test-run your tutorial before you publish it if you'd like.
Alright
[-]edward.maesen, let's do it. Published a draft here in the readme, also with a live demo. I decided to user React, since that is what Steemit.com is also built using, and it's the most popular UI framework at the moment.

If you could go through it and let me know how things are going, that'd be great. Not sure if comments on this article is the best way to work on this or not, haha.
Ok, I'll take a look at it. If I have questions we can figure out how best to communicate. (I'm on discord: edward.maesen#2954)
