LNWidget.guide and other updates
Improving our websites, rough draft for guides, attending Top builder sessions and looking under the hood of LNPlay
Over the past few days the focus has been on improving our websites, creating post content for the getting started guide, attending Top builder sessions, and looking under the hood of LNPlay.
Ghost themes
One of the great things about building websites with Ghost is the open source nature of the website templates. This allows for endless possibilities when it comes to customization. Ghost templates use handlebar.js which is a JavaScript framework for building templates. Because of this we where able to make some design changes and attempt to fix some bugs we found, including adding multi-author support to blog posts and removing some unwanted sections.
LNWidget.Guide
The next order of business was drafting out an early version of the soon-to-be LNWidget getting started guide. We believe that a lot of innovation could possible come about because of this guide.
Under The Hood
While developing lnwidget.guide, we found a few issues that need to be resolved by conference date. One of the issues is running curl commands with parameters. Farscapian is a shadowy super coder when it comes to troubleshooting these kinds of issues.
One possible solution we found is updating our core lighting docker image to the one created by elements project rather than using the polarlightning images. We are both keeping our fingers crossed for this being the solution we need. Stay tuned to find if this was the fix!
Top Builder Sessions
We also made time to attend a few Top Builder virtual sessions including Building in the open and How to build on Bitcoin core. These sessions were packed with a bunch of high level knowledge. The session also gives Top Builder participants an opportunity to ask question to some who are consider experts in certain areas of the Bitcoin ecosystem.
BOLT12 Prism
In other news, farscapian has been coordinating with Damian Goodenough to get the prism functionality pushed forward. The member_db refactor is nearing completion. The current database structure looks like this:
Other Accomplishments
- We got a Spanish Language version of Clams merged into the develop branch of Clams Remote! This is in preparation for Bitcoin++ in Buenos Aires R1MII.
