steemstem.io update - v0.3 is out

It is with great pleasure that I announce the deployment of the version 0.3 of steemstem.io.

The code is available from the SteemSTEM GitHub repository and this release concerns the last four commits (pull requests will be used from the next branch… if I don’t forget ;) ).

INTRODUCTION

---

steemstem.io is the app developed by @steemstem in order to start its actions to make Steem an innovative medium for science communication.

In a few words, the app allows for filtering the Steem blockchain so that only posts carrying the #steemstem tag and approved by the SteemSTEM curation team are displayed, in a chronological order. This filter can be removed by checking a ‘show all posts’ box. All languages supported by SteemSTEM are available and one can move from English to any of them by a simple click. Emphasis on specific subcategories (math, physics, psychology, etc.) can also be enforced.

Whitelisted authors get extra exposure on the right column of the main page and promotion in the top banner can be bought by anyone for a 3 STEEM fee (to be sent to @steemstem-io) and is active as soon as a SteemSTEM vote on the post has been put.

Our app finally allows to log in, vote, post, commenting, manage a wallet, etc.
