HashQuark
IOST partner HashQuark developed an IOST DApp deployment tutorial. Although the tutorial was developed under a local testnet, all described methods are fully compatible with the IOST mainnet as both networks share the same procedures. It plays an important role in guiding the DApp development teams that join the IOST ecosystem, making it even easier for them to deploy the DApps on the IOST chain.
For more information please consult (in Chinese):
IOST TOOL
IOST TOOL upgraded iWallet and enabled DApp requests to sign arbitrary strings. The signed string is specified by the DApp and the signature method returns the signed result to the DApp. This will help traditional games even more easily “chainify”.
