Welcome to our June edition of the Monthly Roundup for Holo & Holochain! If you were waiting to see what was going on in June at Holo and Holochain — the wait is over! Let’s jump right in.

Holochain v0.0.49 released

We’re keeping this week’s Dev Pulse short, in order to allow a more urgent message to take centre stage. Next edition we’ll be ready to share more news about our rapid application development tool and progress with HoloFuel testing.

Generate Your hApp’s Source Code in Seconds

Holochain’s new rapid application development (RAD) tool has landed in the newest blessed release of Holonix, the Holochain developer environment. It saves your fingers by generating a lot of the boring boilerplate for you — not just DNA code itself, but front-end code too! In this edition I’ll give an overview of the tool, walk you through a quick tutorial, then share what’s next and why we’re building this.

Wondering How Can You Help?

In the next few weeks we will be opening up more and more ways for our community to participate. Here is what you can do now and how you can prepare to move forward with Holo and Holochain.

hApp Devs: Install Holochain, hop on the Holochain Forum, attend online meetups, and connect with other teams of devs who are beginning to write new apps in Holochain. Look for updated design specs for core open source hApps that we all need for moving the ecosystem forward.

Hosts: Get on the Holo Forum and start finding 2–3 other hosts that are in aligned time zones and coordinate some testing times. Respond to any survey or sign up requests for team testing when you receive the links.

Marketers and Biz Dev Folks: Create channels on the Holochain Forum and reach out to our growth team about 3rd party grants you think are perfect for distributed app/ distributed infrastructure projects you are excited to develop.

Writers: Contribute to the developer.holochain.org site and to our blogs for both Holochain and Holo. Do you have a submission you’d like to make? Reach out to social@holo.host.

Graphic Designers and Animators: Help Holo and Holochain share complicated messages that are more digestible, and more fun! Share cool related design projects with us — like this Animated Holo Cloud by sending links to social@holo.host (projects should be open-source or commons licensed).
