I like the URL too!

I also grabbed a few cool steemit related URLs for projects I would like to do. I usually work alone or with my small team, but might need/want some collab with my future steem projects.

So my background is with .NET on WIndows servers, and most of what I come across is written in javascript or python for Linux systems. Does anyone know of any work being done on steem related projects using .NET on Windows? I know javascript fairly well, and jQuery. But haven't worked with Python and although I have Ubantu on a VM and an older computer, I haven't done much on the OS.

If not, I'll have to study this most excellent Piston.Rocks project, and try to translate, or maybe use it as a communication layer with the Steem blockchain.

I am also looking at the Steem RPC library for javascript: steem-rpc at https://steemit.com/steem/@svk/steem-rpc-library-for-javascript-steem-rpc

as well as steemjs at https://github.com/pharesim/steemjs which seems to be the simplest of all.

I notice they all are talking to the Steemit public websocket api at wss://steemit.com/ws
I am familiar with using GET and POST to talk to web APIs, so talking to this websocket might be similar, but I need to research that.

I also see mention of using a Steemit API such as

var Api = new client(options);

in the Steem RPC library; but then in other places on here, I have read that there is NO Steem API. SO I'm confused about that!

In any case, thanks so much to you, @xeroc, and other programmers who have shared code from their projects, so that others can research them and makes something of their own!
