Welcome to May’s edition of Streamr developer update.

Phew! It’s out. Our biggest project of the first half of 2018, the Marketplace, was launched with a real bang at Consensus 16 May. The launch went really well, and got us a lot of visibility. Everyone on the team spent almost three solid days engaged in conversation and showing off what we’d built to the hundreds of people who entered our pavilion. That itself was a brilliant learning experience.

However even though the Marketplace is now out, it doesn’t mean that the development team’s work has ended. Far from it. Even before we start adding other functions to the Marketplace, there have been loads of jobs to get going with, either associated with the Marketplace or other parts of the Streamr system. There was also a biggish exercise in trying properly repair a few issues which we’d patched or missed because we were in such a hurry before Consensus.

A detailed list of the development in May can be found below. After reading that, please go try out and play with the Marketplace now it’s up an running. You can, for example, continuously locate the International Space Station, or monitor the power usage of the United Kingdom. Even better — go create your own realtime data product!
