In the last Dev Portal Update we announced the addition of Ruby and Javascript tutorials, documentation on the AppBase API, testnets, and Office Hours in the SteemDevs Discord. Since the last update we’ve made the portal more useful to developers with some organizational improvements, deep linking of API definitions, ‘curl’ examples, and two new Javascript tutorials.
Improved UX
We’ve been adding so much to the developer portal that the user experience has become unwieldy and better organization at the user interface level has become necessary. To that end we’ve improved our main navigation and broken up pages that have become too long. These changes will enable us to continue adding to the site without negatively impacting the user experience.
Deep Linking
In order to help developers more easily share API documentation, we’ve made it possible to “deep link” API definitions.. Just use the url in the “link” icon.
’Curl’ examples
We've added command-line 'curl' examples to many api call definitions to demonstrate how the methods work.
More Javascript Tutorials!
We added two new Javascript tutorials to the runnable tutorials repository. The first shows developers how they can retrieve post content and details. The second demonstrates how to get a list of posts from different categories like trending, hot, active, etc.
Feedback Welcome
Thank you for reading this Dev Portal update. Our goal with these updates is to inform developers of what we’re doing in our attempt to provide community developers the resources you need and to make Steem the blockchain of opportunity. We’re very proud of the work our dev portal team is doing and encourage you to check out their work for yourself at developers.steem.io.
The Steemworks Team
With that in mind, we want to announce that the dev portal team has given themselves a new name, The Steemworks Team, because Steem should “just work”.
Feedback is always welcome, whether it’s about what tutorials we should add or other improvements. Email any suggestions to Steemit’s Developer Advocate at [email protected], with the subject line “devportal - $subject”.
Team Steemit
What we really want to know is why is Steemit broken for the past two months and when are you going to fix it?
Nothing works as it should. Wallet buggs out, reputation while in wallet also, 504 errors all the time, account doesn't exist error, bla, bla, bla.
Also when will we finally see hf20 and smts?

Regarding steemit.com, please check the condenser GitHub repository. If there is already an issue open, you can check to see if you have any useful details to add to help debug the issue. If there is not an issue, you should open one so the dev team knows to take a look at things.
https://github.com/steemit/condenser/issues
I haven't seen any recent updates on HF20 and SMTs. HF20 is being tracked here. I've heard that has been on hold for a while so they could work on scalability changes. There has been a lot of activity regarding SMTs, but it is still probably a ways off still before it is 100% 'ready'.

very good questions, I need to look into HF20 and what's in the upgrade.

Why work on scalability before SMTs and hf20 when we are never using more than 0,2% ? SMTs won't dramatically increase it straight away. EOS is slowly gaining on us and might beat us in the race if we continue running in such a slow pace.
I've been here for longer than 10 months and the only changes we got in that time are custom banners and a laughable redesign of the front end and the logo (this could be done in a day).
Apps like busy and steepshot have more development in a month than steemit in 10. Why?
Also the lack of development on SMTs is causing us to lose a lot of potential partners and if it continues that way all of them will soon go to EOS or ETH if they are really unpatient and want to take compromises to go live sooner.

The 0.2% statistic that is reported at https://www.blocktivity.info/ is just one measure of scalability. The RAM requirements for full nodes to operate (as well as exchange nodes) has been increasing at an unsustainable rate for some time now. There are some details in this post. Solving scalability before we do things that will drive a large number of new users to the platform seems like the right order to do things in.
Condenser (the code for steemit.com) hasn't seemed like a super high priority, but that doesn't mean nothing is getting done. Look at the development activity in GitHub. There is a lot of development activity going on in other projects.
They are more focused on the front-end. Steemit seems to be working on more framework and back-end applications.
There is not a lack of development. Again, check out the GitHub repository. There has been a lot of SMT development going on for the past ~6 months.

I had the same question. Maybe theres are more problems regarding scalibility that doesnt necesarily relate to the blockchain capability.
For example: the rapid grow in accounts creation vs. the physical cost of creating each account + the low user retention in the platform.
Those are problems with scalability even tho if they dont represent an overload in the system.
Just a guess, but i would love to have a certain answer.
Thanks for adressing these problems, @runicar.

Why don't you stop declining your payout in order to give it to users who work hard and post informative content or to hire some more employees ...

When they decline rewards, it keeps the money in the rewards pool to be given out to other authors/commenters.

The improvement in the tutorials part is great, I think it is exactly what Steem needs to be able to attract new developers to this blockchain, in order to build new applications based on it.
I haven't much time to look over it, but I should make some time for this and give a more appropriate feedback. Anyway, great job for the updates!

Hmmm ok i think those tutorials would be useful.
Is this where we can suggest changes on the Steemit website? Like maybe remove the self-upvote function if it's getting abused or maybe remove the upvoting capability of red fishes/minnows too until we get enough reputation that our upvotes will not be dust anymore?
Or maybe someone can reply to my ulog and enlighten us. Thank you.
