Technical Blog Series

We are creating a technical blog series to illustrate the basics of Taxa’s core concepts and know-how to help developers start off developing on the Taxa platform.

In the first post of this series, we are introducing the design and uses of Taxa tServices: Taxa tServices in a Nutshell.

  • Improved the service framework with a clearer and more intuitive syntax;
  • Updated the procedure of user identity acquisition in Pyxa.
  • Conducted minor tweaks on library namespace rules.
