RE: 0000000000000110 - Steemit Interface PoC - Steem-JS & A Slight Distraction
The basic steem coding I've done has been in Javascript/Node.js, but the projects I was working on were more about getting info from the chain rather than sending transactions to it. I've been thinking about tinkering with one of my projects again, but the effort of needing to install Node.js and stuff on my current laptop has been a barrier.
The Node.js is the route I went down and as a complete beginner, I followed this tutorial to get it set up, installing the full package from here (including the chocolatey and other stuff that does all of the necessary windows updates for me). It was pretty much painless and I had a simple node.js script running in no time. I then had to install express and steem via npm and I was good to go 👍🏼
I searched for ages and eventually found a load of old tutorials by sambillingham which I'm slowly working my way through and they're ideal for a complete beginner like me. The 1st tutorial contains the JavaScript file that you can use if you don't want to set up Node.js.
All source code is also available via his GitHub too if you want it.
