This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/ethswarm

Our great sponsors
  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • bee

    Bee is a Swarm client implemented in Go. It’s the basic building block for the Swarm network: a private; decentralized; and self-sustaining network for permissionless publishing and access to your (application) data.

  • There were two versions of the Bee client released in the last month. It is important to mention that node operators are requested to update to the latest version (1.7.0) as soon as possible because there was a change in the protocol.

  • swarm-desktop

    Electron Desktop app that helps you easily spin up and manage Swarm node

  • Since then, several new updates were released, and the latest version is 0.15.1, also available from the website. Some of the issues that are mentioned above are already fixed or mitigated, and the team continues to work on polishing the app towards a 1.0 release in the future.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • bee-js

    Javascript client library for connecting to Bee decentralised storage

  • There was a new version (5.0.0) of Bee-js released. This is a breaking release that brings support for Bee 1.7 and cleans up some long awaited breaking changes that we had lined up. For the full release notes please check this link.

  • bee-status

    An app which helps users to setup their Bee node and do actions like cash out cheques

  • There was a lot of work put into the Bee Dashboard, which is also used as the UI component of the Desktop app. There were efforts made to modularize it even more, so that later, it can be used in standalone mode in the Desktop app and also in the Swarm Browser Extension. Also many of the fixes of the Desktop UI/UX related issues landed here and were released. The latest version is 0.18.2

  • blossom

    Browser Extension based on Fair Data Protocol (by fairDataSociety)

  • Blossom continues to be developed and is scheduled for August release. Thus far we started fdp-storage interface design in Blossom and the initial CI configurations.

  • Work has started on fdp-cli which will be a command line application that handles pods/directories & files.

  • fairOS-dfs

    Decentralised File System (dfs) layer of the FairOS

  • Fairdrive is being migrated from FairOS to fdp-storage which is the FairOS implementation in Javascript. Thus far we’ve completed the registration and login flows which includes the ENS Contract login mentioned previously.
