Dear dev community: In the last two weeks we’ve had two new releases, added three new devs to the team, announced our first blockchain and cryptocurrency conference, and even had a super-genius mystery guest check out our tech to make sure it’s sound (it is).

I think we’re gonna need a bigger boat.

Here’s your lightning round breakdown of what we’ve been cooking in the 14 days. Let’s go!

NEW TECH & TALENT

It’s not our “official” release and we don’t even have the documentation yet, but we’re beyond chuffed to introduce dapploy, our one-click dApp deployer! With dapploy, you’ll eliminate all the nagging little tasks that must be done before you take your dApp live.

We’ve added the code to Github and even included a walkthrough video in our announcement post. So get the code, watch the video, and have fun!

The Bluetooth Software Development Kit (SDK) was created to make your XYO apps better, but also bring XYO functionality to your existing apps. You can read about it in our XYO Medium post and get the code from Github.

We’ve also added three new developers to the XYO team! They are:

Bob Nies, Sr. Android Developer

Nate Brune, Blockchain Engineer

Ryan Pillsbury, Sr. Software Engineer

Welcome to the team, guys!

COMMUNITY & EVENTS

This is it. Our very first blockchain and cryptocurrency conference! We’re taking over a mystery venue in San Diego from November 9th-11th, and we want you to be there!

Here’s the big announcement with (some) details. You can also sign up for email updates and get news as it breaks!

Meanwhile, meet XYO Winterfell’s (Sacramento) Warden of the North, Graham McBain, at Startup Grind! This special event will take place on August 27th at XYO Sacramento headquarters — the McClellan Innovation Center. Tickets are free, the networking will be fantastic, and pizza will be served. Sign up for tickets to hear Graham’s fireside chat at Startup Grind!

Mark your calendar: On Wednesday, August 26th, we’re holding our next Developer Geospatial AMA! This is your chance to ask the nagging questions about the geospatial and blockchain universe, and get answers from the developers themselves.

Have a question for the hosts? DM us on Facebook, Twitter, or Reddit.

We have so much more in the works, and we can’t wait to tell you everything. Until our next issue, visit our Github to pick up some code, get info on Spatial, and keep cranking away!

See you in two weeks!
