I'm trying to make a game for steemit and it would be really useful if I could put text information on a block that wasn't a blog post or comment. Is this possible?
Also, is there anyway to get notified by the blockchain when someone replies to a post? Currently, I'm simply scanning the blockchain every 3 seconds to see if anything has changed. It seems very wasteful compared to a listener.
AppBase enables many components of the Steem blockchain to become modular by creating additional non-consensus blockchains as dedicated plugins.
I really wish I knew exactly what that meant. Sounds awesome though :D
If you haven’t already, you should join the SteemDevs discord group: https://discord.gg/B29Bbng
There are a lot of people there that are good to discuss these types of questions with :)
Have you tried Steemify on Ios, as far as I know, the only criteria is under User, so not much customization, still could be useful?
It basically breaks the blockchain code into separate independent ‘modules’ so that people who are running instances of the blockchain can pick and choose which components they want to run.
Check out the yo notification framework https://github.com/steemit/yo
I think he was referring to a listener you could send to the blockchain that would let you not replay the entire blockchain and analyze event by event (which is what the yo notification framework does) but to tell the blockchain "only send events if they match this criterion". But as I think it's not possible, I think your solution is the best one out there.
Yo not in JS but it's awesome RPC API seems awesome, so I'll try to integrate it to my code.

Thank You! ⚜
In the option list there is the replies option where you can replies.
Yes, you can get notified
Steem is making giant strides and leading the social network
Custom_json is what you probably want
If you use iPhone you can get the Steemify app
Hmm, I guess AppBase is providing a platform that will enable Steemit users to upload a particular functionality/plugin for a better experience on Steemit (just as we have plugins for WordPress blogs).
What a cool development. Thumbs up to Team Steemit.
Thanks for sharing @steemitdev
