Hello, D.Buzz development enthusiasts!
If you're not a developer, the phrase "under the hood" might not mean much to you. But if you are a developer, you know that the work that goes on "under the hood" is important work. This is the work that developers do to make sure that the code they write is effective and efficient. It's not the sexy work that gets the headlines, but it's the work that makes the difference in the long run.
Since last week, we have focused on improving the DBuzz experience. The primary push is in making sure the platform runs optimally, and without too many issues. This will be our focus for the next several weeks as we move into July.
All the current updates are being tested on the NEXT platform at the moment. This means that if you want to try out the new features, go to https://next.d.buzz/. If you are just interested in the latest stable release, then you can use https://d.buzz/.
While the bulk of what we did was "Under the Hood" this week, we did some front-facing updates as well, namely with logging in and signing up for DBuzz.
The following updates were implemented as a way to increase page load time. While Next.D.Buzz does load faster now, we are not finished improving the load time and will keep pushing to have DBuzz served to you quicker.
Along with the load time improvements, we also fixed additional bugs and updated some API calls, to ensure embeds - and more - work as intended.
The takeaway here is that development work, though it may not be the most glamorous part of a project, is critical to its success. A solid foundation will make the difference between a strong, stable structure and a weak one that is prone to collapse. So, when you're tempted to skimp on the development work in favor of something more flashy, keep in mind the importance of a solid foundation.
Thank you for joining us on this journey!
