The Credits team is delighted to present the first edition of the Developer's Journal for the year 2020. The developers of the project team have made tremendous progress over the past month and have introduced a number of important improvements for increasing the effectiveness of the platform’s performance.
The following article will include Mainnet version 4.2.452 download links along with information about current release fixes and improvements. The release is available for download using the links provided below:
The developers have added additional validation when writing blocks by all nodes, including in the process of synchronizing blocks. Compared with the previous release, the number of checks has been significantly increased.
Previously, synchronized blocks were not checked, because they were verified by nodes that had participated in consensus and added them to the blockchain. With the new release, the nodes do not write them to their own database without additional verification. The main advantage is that there is no sense in seizing consensus and adding transactions to the blockchain since the nodes will not write such a block in the synchronization process.
The past month was extremely productive for the development team. Plans are already being made for uploading a new Developer’s Portal with improved UI / UX. The team also developed the Rest API in order to facilitate the interaction of external developers with the platform. In addition, an SDK for the main API methods for JS, C #, and Python has been implemented.
The development team would like to thank all community members for their support and understanding. Development of the platform and further product offerings and their fielding is one of the main priorities of the project team along with increasing the value of the platform for all stakeholders. Stay tuned for more news and updates from Credits.
