Hi all! We are developing a simple and intuitive open-source BitShares user interface. It works in all popular mobile and desktop browsers, as well as Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android applications (available for building on GitHub). The last 3 months, we regularly write about changes in the project in this thread: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=28375.0

Our main priority is to bring to full working condition and release the clean looking app, which includes the main functionality of the BitShares exchange. Keep simplicity and ease of use on any device.

Already implemented:

About 120 BitShares assets can be deposited, instantly exchanged for any other (supports Beet without entering a password) and sent to another user or transferred to an external blockchain via gateways.

All assets have a profile with a logo, information about the website, GitHub, explorers, and social networks. Each of them has information about the current price (average data from overworld exchanges). There is a convenient history for viewing information about deposits, withdrawals, and transactions made. You can run the application without entering a password, only by specifying your username.
To speed up the following tasks project needs funding support. With the ideas and suggestions of the community, we are ready to adjust the vector of application development.

Development tasks:
Budget:
Estimated rate range and weekly hours:

UI/UX/Motion Design - $100 / 10 hours weekly
Project Management - $90 / 10 hours weekly
Core Development - $120 / 20 hours weekly
Frontend Development - $120 / 10 hours weekly
Community/Content Management - $70 / 10 hours weekly
Documentation Specialist, QA - $70 / 10 hours weekly

What to expect from us:

We plan to publish updates every 2-3 weeks placing them on GitHub with a description of what has been done on this forum. You can see examples of the tasks that we set for updates in the previous thread: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=28375.0 There you can also view the timeline of our activity and quality.

We are open to discuss any features the community needs: in this thread, in PM or in the Discord chat. Anyone will be able to claim, work, and submit a PR for tasks from milestones.

Low-Hanging Fruit. Any improvements that are not in the development list, but they can be added without much difficulty can be implemented with a higher priority.

Bug fixes are priority tasks. Any problems found in the application will be fixed first. We use continuous development, and all new builds will be tested through Browserstack to guarantee work on most user devices.

We hope that the strong BitShares community will receive benefits from a stable and nice-looking application that can attract new users and active transactions to the existing ecosystem.

Since the time I saw your work guys back in May, I've checked it fully and loved it.

I support this project and I see a very good potential with it if it supports and focus on the "branding" approach of BitShares.

One of the biggest advantage use cases for this product is:

 - It's built using cordova so app can get customized only one time and then a single build command will run it for Chrome, Opera, Firefox, Safari, Edge, Mobile Safari and Mobile Chrome, standalone apps for Windows, Android, Linux, iOS and macOS.
 - The source code and branding section for it would make it easy for assets issuers to customize their brand for their created assets.
 - The pages are light and browsing quickly, I see no bugs so far.
 - UX work is great and prompt.


Thanks for this.
