Today we have another free tool for you! This one is... well, it is what it is, and that is a Minimum Viable Product, or MVP. I noticed @quark.top talking about this, and among developers we know this term and use it, we love it. Its important to identify the Minimum Viable Product (usually ugly), so you can get it to a user/customer and test, before investing too much time into the scope creep.
Let's get into the tool, Hive-Memories - available currently here:
https://hive-memories.vercel.app/#home
I'll hold my comments for the "javascript above all" type people for another post; this is a really solid attempt! And we have our very own @spiritsurge to thank for this. Seriously, not like he isn't busy, but he took the time to hack this baby together, if it was a hackathon I would pick him as a winner.
So how does it work?
Put your name in and find out!
When its done, it will download a PDF document, right to your computer!
Let's open it up and take a look!
Oh yeah, here it is - ugly as sin and as "minimum viable" as a product gets! But honestly, as a Project Manager, I love this. All the "pretty" stuff can be easily fixed, one by one. Do you want to render the markdown? Do you want to increase image size or force them all to center? This is "easy". The hard part is building an app!
Does this serve any purpose?
Well, consider the case of @thekittygirl - who asked us to search the body of her own posts way back in January:
I, personally and immediately, connected with this request - as someone who has been "saying stuff by keyboard" into the blockchain for a LONG time. I often spend valuable minutes trying and failing to find my own posts, even when I think I know more or less the title of the post and some key phrases.
It should be "easy", but it isn't - currently. We first build the backlinker to help with this, and make it a lot faster to get the posts, but we are not storing body text.
But with HIVE-Memories - Kitty found her peaches! A pdf reader has built in search functions, or you can just use your browser.
@thekittygirl - Your request is delivered! Case closed :)
But but but....
Yeah. I didn't even manage to get through mine yet, to see that type of failure, I got once to 700 something and once over 1000 before....
So @derangedvisions, hang on a little longer. I am pretty sure I mentioned this once or more times already, but he put up 500 archon for the radar - that's 5 times the "my radar" level! I think this is number two, let's see how number three looks after a bit more work. There are further efficiencies to achieve for sure.
Do you need a tool? Or Quality of Life or Feature Enhancement to one that already exists? Just follow directions:
My Radar
I want to send Hive layer 1 tokens to accounts that hold my token.
I want to send Hive-Engine tokens to accounts that hold my token. (in progress)
I want to see all my posts, I want to print them (almost there....)
I want an "auto-badger" to follow accounts that meet certain hive-engine token conditions (working, UI in progress)
I want to search the body of all my posts for random phrases (delivered today!)
Solution to: "I want to vote on accounts that hold my token" Private solved, still working on public ui
I want to use dCity market on mobile by @dm312-et Complete
Standalone Memo DeEncrypter Tool Complete
I want to see a governance pie chart that makes minnows want to buy more HP Delivered
I want to search for comments by Community Tags Complete (and updated!)!
So that is my Radar. If you want to get your idea on my radar*, pay attention:
- Get 100 ARCHON tokens
- Send them to @ecoinstats
- Use a fun memo
- Screenshot or copy the link to TX
- Leave a comment on the latest "Is this worth Money?" series of posts by @ecoinstant including:
A. Screenshot or txlink of payment
B. Your idea as simply and elegantly explained as you know how. (use the current radar as a guide)
*Getting on my radar in no way obligates or commits me to building your idea for free. This is my price for consideration.
We are also working with many other leaders and developers in the production of HIVE podcasts, including the Deep Web3 Secrets Podcast Series:
Among others, follow @hivetoday for updates of all the great stuff going on, around the chain. Let's keep building together, in an open and modular way. There is a lot to do, but we can do it if we work together.
