SAFE Network Dev Update - August 13, 2020

Great work guys and at the previous update I’ve been asking how to get up to speed with the latest workings of the network and I am very, very pleased with the updated primer!

Sorry you are leaving @ravinderjangra. You did some great work on making mobile happen. Trust you are moving on to bigger and more rewarding roles.

Keep grinding away devs. The rest of us are depending on you. X

This looks like a typo in the primer, or at least very awkward:

SectionProofChains allow Section authority to be baked into the data management process, with a simple record of decentralized record of which sections signed which data, effectively replacing the old Data Chains

Regarding the SAFE Network App UX update, i like that approach where an application asks for access to all data and then the user can say no, but then grant access to only the subset of data that they want the app to work on. Great design here, I’ve never like the all or nothing permissions you get on current platforms.

And the cool thing is, thanks to data labels, you can allow an app (by default, or not) the capability to manipulate only data which you’ve created via that app.

So that means you can immediately start using a new app without worrying about your existing data, and you’re only interrupted when wider access to other data is required.

Yes I mangled that one pretty good! Corrected now.

Could someone from the community please help to give a brief summary of the remaining high-level tasks? Use to follow the task board but I’m not sure if that is still accurate and the project has become a bit confusing to follow. Thanks very much!

My understanding is that Farming and Vaults are the last pieces of the puzzle to sort prior to a full Fleming release.

With regards to Farming/Vaults, it appears there are 5 tasks in progress, and 4 tasks to be done remaining. You can find more detail on those things here:

Also multi section data handling. Which is vaults I suppose. Redundant comment, haha.

Might be due to me staying up all night (will be sleeping after this), but the Primer at 1080p takes a lot of left+right eye movement from how wide it is. Maybe a thinner margin version is needed. (Luckily for me, an intellectual, I can just shrink my browser size. Though an official formatting for that could be helpful.) Excited to read it at my full capacity later!

Thank you for the heavy work team MaidSafe! Together we can make the Web beautiful again!

I add the translation into Bulgarian in the first post :dragon:
