RE: Upcoming Changes to api.steemit.com

in #steemit6 years ago

please, the only thing I request is to take a break from adding and changing functionalities and spend some weeks on building easier and better documentation and tutorials!
Really the API is amazing, but the documentation is not beginner friendly at all! I am working on a tutorial series trying to make things simple for non programmers to understand because I want people to be bottlenecked by their creativity only, not their technical knowledge, but I alone can't do it, please, take your time to make a tutorial series, does not matter if you "steal" my students and my earnings from the tutorials but put more effort on making tutorials and noob friendly documentation, this is a must for scalability! people just can't understand easily how to use your API to the fullest, you can add and modify as many functionalities as you want, but if steem dapps development stays intellectually elitist we won't have mass adoption because some people might have great ideas for simple apps but they can't execute it without breaking their backs trying to understand how does it work!

@igormuba, nope that's up to the community now.

I don't deny the community should also do something, as part of my witness campaign I am trying the best I can to make beginner friendly tutorials and translate them to 2 languages, but I am just only person and I feel overwhelmed by some many things and tasks left to do, sadly I can't find other people that care about bringing Steem API development to the masses...
