If you haven't heard yet about HF 28, get ready as it's closing in!
While not many major changes will be part of it, every HF carries with it some excitement, anticipation, and some risks ( though thankfully we never had issues before - here at Hive :) )
So as 
You can dive right into the testnet and get a firsthand look at the future of Hive. This is a perfect chance to test your applications and prepare for the mainnet release.
For over a year, we have been committed to expanding not only HAF backend APIs (such as Proxied Accounts API, Account Balances API, Hive RichList API,...) but also building an amazing HAF block explorer, Hivescan.info, which you can now use as a portal to the Hardfork 28 testnet.
To begin your exploration, you'll need to connect to the testnet node. Simply navigate to the footer of Hivescan.info to add a new custom node.
Here’s a quick guide:
Make sure you perform this process for both **Hive node **and Explorer backend API links in the footer.
For 1.5 years, we've been working on enhancing the Hive experience for users and devs. As detailed in our post, "Hive Dev Proposal 2", we've been focused on delivering robust and efficient API endpoints based on HAF-apps. Our efforts have been geared towards growing a seamless and powerful backend that benefits the entire Hive ecosystem, users and devs alike.
We are also happy to report that our backend development work / APIs will be bundled into the official HAF release 1.28
To continue our work on developing and maintaining HAF backend and frontend applications, we rely on your support. We invite you to support our DHF proposal.
Your vote will enable us to keep building and innovating for a better Hive for everyone.
