Hi everybody, I presented SteemBlog a few weeks ago on @augustol/steemitblog-open-source-project-have-your-blog-from-steemit
SteemBlog is a web app that displays the posts of a user on steem. But very helpful if you want to have a blog running on a personal domain with custom styles and scripts using the steem blockchain as database.
On this new version the app is hosted on a server (on a digitalocean droplet of 10 usd) but no worries because it still continue being all open source and with the option for developer to build form source a client version, the app never save the signer post keys, it ask it everytime you want to do an action, on the next version I will add the option so save it on the browser storage and encrypted with a second password there if I have time :).
Generate your blog URL on http://steemblog.io/url
See your generated post like this one for @steemitqa
Have your own website using github as host like me
Personal Website on http://augustolemble.com
New Publisher Section on http://steemblog.io/publisher
On the next version I want to improve the publisher and make a blog directory and store config files of the blogs on steem, so user would be able to save their themes, background images, blog name on steem and not passing them via parameters.
In the app will be hosted on a server where I would be able to improve SEO, and add maybe more features. BUT all that will be related to account management I want it to be done on the client side, so in a future the project can split intro SteemBlog on a server and another app to manage user founds, encrypt, delegate power, etc, without the need to download a wallet.
You can see the source code here: https://github.com/SteemBlog/app
Working on my personal domain with the website hosted on gh-pages: http://augustolemble.com/#/

Nice idea, but you should improve the design in my opinion! That background image is ugly.
