There’s one common thing that all folks interested in Holochain can DO to support the community - and that’s TEST applications!
With it being early days, like the original Internet, ALL current Web2 applications need to be reframed, re-imagined and thought through for offering humane technology and decentralized computing (some call it Web3). That can take some serious group wisdom and energy!
Call me wacky, but I think each one of us has a part in adding our voice to what is built, how it feels to us, and proactively helping these hApps get better and better. With Holochain being an Open Source platform, purposefully, that means that if you see an application that you like, but feel you would like to tweak it for you or your community's needs, you CAN!
Want to have fun testing a new hApp? Ready to be collaborative and add your voice??!
Our FIRST Zoom gathering for testing a hApp, herddit, is coming up! It will be co-sponsored by hAppenings.community and the Holochain Advocates Community Circle.
Here are the details:
Event: Holochain Launcher- Exploring ‘herddit’ (A Reddit clone app)
When: Sunday, March 28th at 2-3:30 pm EST
Where: Zoom (Virtual meeting)
Cost: Free!
We hope you can join us!
