Ecency's new website and desktop app are now opensource

in Ecency3 years ago

As many of you know since early this year, we have started to write our Ecency website from scratch with better technology stack and use best practices we learned over the course of last 4 years. New website and rebranding came at the same time and we heavily invested time, resources to make sure website is the fastest website on blockchain. Proudly, we can say that we have achieved that. Ecency website is much smaller in size, much faster to load, much intuitive and saves a lot of internet data usage for all devices. And speed of website doesn't come only with technology stack you use for programming, although it is big part of it, there are other factors that contribute together.

We are excited to opensource so more developers and entrepreneurs can help us grow this ecosystem. All of our essential user facing applications are opensource, because we believe in open, volunteer collaboration and it is the key to grow not only products but entire ecosystem. We are also the first project who initiated community based open translation programs, with help of all our friends, you, we have current version of mobile application available in more than 25 languages, older version of app was available in 58+ languages. All of theses were possible with open collaboration. We will soon start translation of Ecency.com and desktop application, we hope you will help us once again.

We want community to feel that Ecency is their dear home on internet, as we say, we are "social network built, owned and operated by its users".

This is a pretty big deal. I personally will be digging in and this should assist me in demystifying my journey into front end blockchain development for whatever app or project envisioned for Hive.

Full UV and reblog as a small token of gratitude. I have been a long time supporter of Esteem / Ecency and glad to take part as yall develop the vision.

That's great. A big opportunity for developers!👏🍻

Indeed, anyone can fork, suggest changes and push code changes. We encourage developers to check our codebase, it is easy to follow, you will notice right away how clean and properly typed codebase is. Who knows, what other apps will be based on this codebase.

Cool. Noticed that you support Tweets! Congrats! I just wish to support embedded D.Tube :)

Cool... I like this app and web Ecency 😋😋👌👌👌🍦

Great work!

Great development....More power! 👏👏👏🙌

Desktop app atfer update does not start. I see only white screen. Not the best update...

Could try to download latest update 3.0.9 please and let us know if it works ok for you? We are pushing update as we speak, should be available in few minutes. https://desktop.ecency.com

Works! Thanks for quick response :)

We will check what might have been causing issue and push minor release asap

Now that Im getting back into Hive going to give t a try to the desktop app, Im using the IOS as from today and so far its great

Feedback from the November 1st Hive Power Up Day

Fantastic news! Great work, guys. The App and specially the Website are getting better every day. 🤗

Big milestone for us. This year we have few more milestones to reach and those are also quite big and mind blowing. Stay tuned!

We really need this app to be develop properly as we are facing trouble on #IOS version so please have a look

What's the trouble, could you describe more details so we can fix it? Thank you!

Yes sure, note below points that personally I felt would be helpful to improve

  • It’s much slower to update any notifications
  • Community tabs should be updated
  • fingerprint login
  • blog loading issue
  • blog and post should merge together in profile option

Thanks for the app. I really liked it for the schedule function, has it disappeared or am I just not seeing where it is?

In mobile app, Editor page now has ⚙️for advanced settings where you can schedule a post. In website and desktop app, we will add that option soon.

That s great to hear!!! Keep up the good work

I need Ecency for blogging

Great work! You have made it possible for thousand of people to have access to an easy to use blockchain-based social network.

Great work

Hey ecency, how can one add a user as a beneficiary of a post. I can't just found the feature using the ecency website.
Please your reply will be highly appreciated

We will add that feature this week. You can add beneficiaries via our Ecency mobile application or wait few days to try. 😉

The app version was terrible. It was hanging my phone so I couldn't help but to uninstalled it immediately.
But I'm very glad that the feature will be included soon to the website

Mobile app works differently on different devices, it has its perks like you get push notifications on mobile and other unique features like Spin and Win. We will be working on improving it for sure. Yes, website can be used from mobile browser as well, which is universal in a way, that's why we are focusing on making website feature full as well.

I installed the latest version of the desktop app (3.0.8) and it doesn't work. It just shows a blank page.

Latest version is 3.0.9, please check here: https://desktop.ecency.com and download last version. Thank you!

Comencé a usar #ecency hace bastante tiempo desde mi primera cuenta @evagavilan, lamentablemente la perdí por bloqueo involuntario y ahi quedaron muchos puntos acumulados. Ahora estoy con mi nueva cuenta @evagavilan2 hay posibilidad de transferir esos puntos.
Tampoco tengo claro si cuando se trata de promocionar son mis post o los post de otros.
Me gustaría saber un poco más para trabajar con confianza.

Question? And now such a topic appears and it is impossible to post a post. What is it? And where can I find technical support?

Could you please retry? We noticed some issues with RPC servers.

Does the desktop app still do boost? I cannot see it there. If not then what use are my tokens?

All uses cases are all in Points page.

Ah, not on the post as before. Thanks.

I really think it is a bad thing to prompt for active/owner/master key. The latter two should never be used like this.

Just found this post. I have been trying to figure out how to setup a front end for some ideas I've had, and this looks like just want I might need. I'm pretty new to this kind of development, and so I have a question. If I fork it, and make changes to the code, will any changes you make flow through to the fork?
