A couple of feedbacks:

  • It seems you create a designated comment to a specific post once I enter a workout. Did you consider using json_metadata to store metadata? (workout details, duration, workout type, etc.) You may use the body for a real comment/description from the users for the specific workout. Adding support for workout descriptions and images would be good.

And a small question, did you already open-sourced your boiler-plate? That would be super awesome if you somehow create a skeleton project and share it. :)

Hi @emrebeyler - I've build my own very basic app that I'll be expanding on using Sam's open source boilerplate. It's pretty amazing.

Hey @emrebeyler, great to see you moderating 👊

I did consider using custom_json as the storage layer instead of comments metadata, in fact after seeing hotdog I've considered creating a JS port. I think the custom_json broadcast is an ace way to make use of the network.

I decided to use comments for now as I would like them to be A) votable and B) plan on adding the advanced options for title, description and images which will use the core comment functionality as it is intended. I plan to use custom_json broadcasting for joining challenges/groups and giving achievements.

Yes the boiler-plate is opensource - https://github.com/code-with-sam/steemconnect-node-js-boilerplate

It has had a positive response from the community. In many ways it is not necessarily a prod ready start but it's at a level that is far more accessible to less advanced devs (myself included) than forking a more established project. I don't have a hosted version of the boiler-plate but I probably should.

👊

Yeah, I know using comments is required to make the content rewardable. However, every comment has also a "json_metadata" field which you can actually use to store the metadata. :)

Ahh yes, I'm actually doing both. I had forgotten I was auto-generating the comment content e.g 'Move Club Workout - @sambillingham - cycle - 4Mi - 20mins', this is probably unnecessary until the user can actually edit that content but it is also stored in json_metadata like you mention.
