Hey all,I've been working in the blockchain world for quite some time. About four years ago I created an open-source development tool for blockchain applications, written 100% in Node JS. This tool has grown into a suite of node-based tools -- including a command line, desktop app, and libraries -- and I wanted to introduce it to the node community.The main tool is called Truffle: https://www.trufflesuite.com/ - GithubWe wanted to make blockchain development experience synonymous with eating a chocolate Truffle. To that end, we gained lots of experience on how to distributed node-based applications. These experiences were hard fought, from releasing multiple versions of interconnected node packages in separate repositories (we later switched to lerna), to using webpack to ensure we had a cross platform CLI tool that would absolutely, 100% run in Windows.What I'd love from this community is some feedback. We've done a great job being a member of our own blockchain communities (e.g., /r/ethereum), but I wanted to see if there was some love for blockchain from the wider node development audience. Are you looking for more node-based blockchain content? For instance, we could talk about our dev process managing node-based CLIs, desktop apps, and libraries (a small taste is here). Or how we've grown to like compiled code and still be able to maintain a dependency-free distribution that works on Windows first try.Anyway, would love your thoughts, and wanted to show off our free, open source tools to a new community.Cheers! Tim-- Founder, Truffle
