RE: I Developed a Desktop Client For CoinMarketCap

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

This is a great post ! Thanks.
I've tried your coinmarketcap client for MacOS, you've done a great job !

Sadly, from the user's point of view, it's seems just to be an iframe running on it's own windows without the possibility to watch multiple currency at once (or any other functionality for that matter).
I can easily have the same result by opening it on a separate windows.

Great initiative tho, i'm looking forward to see other functionalities coming in ;)

I thank you for downloading it! Indeed, for the enduser it might look like a simple app, but check out this:

  • Several backend servers used to pull automated updates using Squirrel (only for Mac and Windows)
  • Continous integration using Travis, Circle and AppVeyor, which run the code and upload it to Bintray and Github (depending upon the branch)
  • Analytics built-in
  • Launch on Startup

The project was forked initially, but even though to make it work with your own servers takes hefty time because there's no step-by-step tutorial.

To conclude, I just wanted to develop a solid, scalable, but clean app. This is just version 1.0.0; there are many updates to come, what I did was to check if there's demand for it.
