Dev Portal Update: Tutorials, Recipes, and Tweaks, Oh My!
![DPU 6.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmYto7LNAm3B2PLEctnLcR6FcEPsGummFV6w5jr2HWYES1/DPU%206.jpg)

In our previous [Dev Portal Update](/@steemitblog/devportal-update-5-jussi-steemconnect-improved-structure-and-recipes), we described our expanded documentation on Jussi, how Community Contributions work, our improved tutorial structure, and the new Recipes section.

In this update our primary focus was adding new tutorials. We also improved our API definitions, added ImageHoster information, improved mobile support, and completed other minor tweaks.

<h1>Tutorials</h1>

We added 18 new [tutorials](https://developers.steem.io/tutorials/). Seventeen of those are Javascript and Ruby. In addition, the beginning of every tutorial now has a link to the executable GitHub repo and a link to the tutorials directory within that repository. 

Each tutorial outlines a specific task such as "get all posts by an author" or "claim rewards." These tasks are perfect for developers who want to create a new front-end or improve automation on existing products. We plan to keep adding more solutions to common problems to make it even easier for developers to quickly build amazing applications.

We want to help developers understand these tasks rather than leave them to reverse-engineer the tasks in isolation. Hopefully by fully documenting the most common functionalities, even developers seeking to leverage different languages will find these tutorials helpful.

<h1>API Definitions</h1>

The [API Definitions page](https://developers.steem.io/apidefinitions/) lists every method available to developers for accessing the current state of the blockchain. The entire list of methods is broken up into namespaces and listed here: https://developers.steem.io/apidefinitions/

In this update, the definitions now include more detail such as the hardfork, in which a particular method was first introduced, as well as which methods are disabled. Under the hood, we're using [`steem-ruby`](/@steemitdev/steem-ruby-the-official-ruby-client-for-the-steem-blockchain) to evaluate the current methods, which is much faster than before because it uses json-rpc-batch to get the method signatures.

<h1>Image Hoster</h1>

We believe that Steem is the best blockchain protocol in the world for powering web applications, and we want to maintain that status by making it even easier for developers to delight their users with amazing experiences. Hosting images is one example of a seemingly simple aspect of every website that is critical for creating a great user experience. That’s why we’ve added documentation for running and using [ImageHoster](https://github.com/steemit/imagehoster) to the [Services section](https://developers.steem.io/services/#image-hoster). This will be helpful for developers looking to host and proxy images in their own front-end applications.

<h1>Improved Mobile & Other Updates</h1>

The site’s mobile navigation has been improved with a functional “hamburger” (☰) element, as well as “back to top” footers to keep your thumb from cramping up.

We also added SteemConnect4j to the [community resources](https://developers.steem.io/community/#community-resources) section, which is a software development kit for interacting with SteemConnect in Android products.


<HR>

As always, the Steemworks team is working hard to make sure that Steem does too. We’d love to hear from you. Drop in on the SteemDevs [discord chat](https://developers.steem.io/community/#community-developeradvocate) or by email to Steemit’s Developer Advocate at da@steemit.com, with the subject line “devportal - $subject”.

Steem On!

The tutorials are fantastic - I was just trying to figure out how to do some of those exact things over the past week and could have really used those tutorials then! Luckily the steemdevs community on discord came to the rescue :-)

Good documentation is key for building a strong third-party developer community. Keep up the good work!

> Oh My!

Haha, looks like you're having fun working. That's a good sign! Keep it up :-)

Thanks for the update. Is the dev portal actually something that's been set up in preparation of SMTs? I guess all the information and tutorials you provide will be especially valuable for those who're planning to create their own token?

Not so much in preparation for SMTs.  The goal is much broader.  If you can use the API to do it, we want to document it on devportal.  There will be SMT specific methods and operations, for example:

https://github.com/steemit/steem/issues/2235

Once these are merged to a public endpoint, we'll add them to devportal:

Awesome! Thanks a lot for your detailed response @inertia. 

Sometimes I think it'd be great to have a "news window" or something like that on Steemit.com for all these informations that are related with the progress of the platform. Having so much content being promoted on the trending page lately, sometimes these really important messages don't get the visibility they should have. Maybe that's something to think about some day.

I was quite surprised about the number of tutorials available in the docs, when I checked them out yesterday.

Great job!

Conversations in the discord channels seem to hint at tutorials and docs that come next in the DP and supporting repos. Community members asking for & providing assistance there are probably helping to guide Steemworks.

Awesome :D recepies in a very practical manner like "how to do x" is really what I've been wanting when I was learning steem. I'm really happy to see how well this turned out :)

Ugh!? Why reinvent the wheel with jussi? Why not build block support into an api gateway like kong? Now I have to run my apps behind kong and jussi. This kind of infrastructure redundancy is not good.

@inertia · 
Can you host kong on a raspberry pi?  You can with jussi.  The reason you might want to do this is for tinkering, maybe, not serious a hosting solution.  But I find it useful in development to have the option of pointing to my raspberry pi as if it was running a full node.

My point is that jussi can be deployed on a seriously wide variety of hardware.

Waiting to run something like this on any hardware is a common request. That's why kong exists. It's openlua on nginx. It's ridiculously flexible and powerful. Best of all, it exists and is supported by a greater community. 

IMHO, it simplifies things because now I can reduce my footprint by having either a reverse proxy and/or load balancer. That is, I can funnel requests through my reverse proxy before hitting the load balancer, or I could build my multiplexing into my load balancer cluster.

Regarding the tinkering use case, I think kong was created for specifically that because of the openlua foundation. It's meant for fail-fast development. Or rather, it's meant for you to be able to develop your plugins on a running application in just the kind of environment that a raspberry pi will create for you.

I think though that if I were going to tinker, I would use docker for tinkering unless it were IoT. Raspberry Pi really only makes sense when you have hardware you want to modify with software, but you haven't the means. You can forcibly add a software solution to your hardware (ironically with more hardware). For example, I want to connect my home security system to steemit and multiplex with kong/jussi on my raspberry pi, that would make sense. If I just wanted to try out jussi/kong to see how many apps I could connect before seeing resources constrained, I would use docker.

Great work on tutorials. Could this mean PRs to the dev portal are being accepted now? 

Developer's reference is really good as well. I hadn't realized until now how often I'm actually digging through the source code as a reference instead of referring to the documentation.

I think one tutorial that is really missing here is a high-level for creating your own language binding for json-rpc. I'm sure there are some devs out there that would love to traverse transactions with R.

Yeah. I think that nails it. If we had something like an [openapi specification](https://www.openapis.org/) or [Swagger spec](https://swagger.io/specification/) 

1. the reference guide could be generated
1. We can verify/test code and check for breaking changes
1. Generate and verify clients from the api specification
1. Build/contribute additional tooling around the specification

From what i've learnt from recent updates, yes that would be the case, and that dsteem performs and scales much better than steemjs. Steemjs is left for some sort of legacy I guess. Not sure if they completely removed it though from the official documentation already, as there were few references to it last I checked.

Where is the SMT dev related stuff residing?

I'm looking at a project that will be suitable for SMT's and need to know more in-depth information.  Has an updated whitepaper been published?

Hmmm, I found this from 2017 https://smt.steem.io/smt-whitepaper.pdf and are wondering if it's still relevant?
