Latest news on the Steem Followers project I have going, visit it at https://steem.makerwannabe.com/
Today I got my little component working properly to fetch profile data from Steemd, so that I could show it on the page. I think this adds a quite a bit, as the page previously was missing a bit of information on which account you were viewing.
I also show more data for all of the followers listed, for now it's just the date that user signed up, their location and the number of posts they have, but I do have plans to show profile pictures, reputation and possibly their Steem Power too.
For those of you who may be interested in the tech behind it, there is a mash up of MSSQL, MySQL, PHP and Go, making use of the public Steemd service, on the full node run by @gtg (thank you kindly)
I will be doing a post on how it all fits together / sharing some code, so you can hit the ground running if you want to attempt something similar!
Look out for my next post, but before you go, help me out with some feedback?
What info would you want to see on the page?
Are profile pictures important to you?
Would you like to suggest a design idea? (I really am terrible at that, so would appreciate any help)
This would have been much harder to do if not for the services provided by @arcange (STEEMSQL) and @gtg (the full node I am using).
Please consider voting for them as witnesses!
