SteemDash.com: A Dashboard for Steemit
I have created a new site called SteemDash.com. It allows you to view many helpful sites about steemit, all on one page. This is different from other sites because it has iframes that link directly to those pages. I programmed it from scratch using html. I am currently accepting suggestions, and I hope you enjoy!
Also, below the fold of the page, there is blocktrades.us and a steem voting power calculator.
As requested, here is a list of the tools on this site:
Steemdollar.com by r4fken
Steemstats.com by jesta
Steemprices.com by jasonmcz
Steemups.com by saulius
Steemroll.io by lantto
Steemshovel.com by kaptainkrayola
Steem.ly by anduweb
Blocktrades.us by blocktrades
Steemcalculator.github.io by burnin (V0.2 was recently released, hand him an upvote too)
I'm not trying to be a jerk here, and I encourage innovation in this space, but I won't be voting on this post. It's grossly overpaid for the effort that was put forth.
This bothers me for the following reason:
I'd encourage you to add value to the community and learn, but I'm not sure this fits either of those criteria.
Thank you so much for speaking my mind, @jesta! Originally I was going to keep to myself about this, but since one of the great devs here that I look up to has spoken, I feel compelled to do the same.
In terms of effort, I don't mean to brag, but even my grade school self back then knew how to slap together a few iframes on a standalone webpage in a few minutes, half hour max. I'm not here to argue about value, because that is subjective, but grossly overpaid is correct.
My latest tool released 11 hours ago has gotten fantastic feedback from lots of users for solving a problem that many have been having for as long as they've been on Steemit, but the potential payout is not even close to this, at 31 cents. It's not about the money for me, but just for the perspective, this post is 2400x more!
I'm not hating, this is your idea, you thought of it, and it is a great idea. Just... sighh
</rant>I did spend a while doing everything, over two hours, but I see your point. You guys should be the ones making more than me. I just saw steemtools.com and thought it would be a good idea to make something where it was iframes instead of just links.
I've seen projects that are very complex to code and go unnoticed. I am sure they take more than two hours to put together. I would say multiple days and nights, 6+ hour long sittings perhaps. Weeks even. Again, yours was a nice idea.
Yeah, those people really should be getting more credit. The things that pay are the idea and the code, but the complexity should have a say in the payment too.
interesting, but not a good idea!
I suppose that I understand your point. I did learn, a lot about how to use html as this website took over two hours to build due to numerous errors. Also, I thought it would be nice for the community to have a tool like this. I see your point however. The original devs should be earning a lot more than me. Thank you for not downvoting.
The learning itself is great, and I always want to encourage everyone to learn new skills. Two hours though is not a long time - especially for what was accomplished. For an anyone with a few months of experience, that page would have taken 5 minutes. The reason no one has yet is simply because it's not a good idea.
As your skills grow in web development, you'll soon learn how tools like these aren't really all that nice. The iframe solution you implemented to pull up all those pages has a laundry list of technical problems behind it - and is a huge hinderance to anyone that actually might be using it.
We are in agreement, and I know it's not your fault that you got voted on. You shared and thing and it got votes. I just spoke up because I wanted people to realize that they need to think about what they're voting on. Those who voted here really should go find the authors of those tools and give their posts some love.
Thanks for the work you did in putting all these tools together in one place. How about at a shoutout to those that made the individual tools?
I updated the post to add that.
Please at least link them properly...

Also...
its just a bunch of iframes... its not programing. sorry
exactly! throwing together a markup language can just be called.. writing
and if he knows html, why can't he format those links correctly, then?? haha
200 upvotes?? there's no justice...
But I don't know html very well. I learned some, and some css, just to make this.
Great concept, but can I make a suggestion?
Make it so that the user can:
1.) Choose which Steem Tools they want on the page
2.) Re-Arrange the Steem Tools they are using on the page
3.) Resize the Steem Tools they are using on the page
Those sound like great ideas for a future release! Although, #3 might be really difficult to implement.
Upvoted. Will wonders never cease on Steemit?
Nice bunch of tools on one page, i like it alot @joshglen, appreciate your efforts!
Thank you! That was the goal, to create a single page with lots of tools!
molto utile
grazie!
If can stick in an easy to use miner that would be great.
Very good idea man! And thanks for including steem.ly there. I'll be getting it out of beta in a couple days as there have been multiple improvements, features and continuity aspects added.
It looks very well put together! It's always amazing to see what innovative new ideas the users on this platform come up with. Keep up the great work! :D
Thank you very much!
Fabulous app!
However, you should get a new certificate. I know most people blow by these types of warnings, but because we're dealing with money and reputation, it's just better if there was no issue at all.
Keep up the good work!
Looking at the certificate, it looks like it is for steemdollar.com. I am not sure what I can do if it is just displayed in an iframe.
