More SaaS Infrastructure for Build DApps on Cardano, Maestro
About this episode
One of the parts when it comes to building decentralised applications is the infrastructure that is required. This allows DApps to query the blockchain, get data and information that it requires and display it on a web interface. Furthermore, it allows the DApp to create transactions and interactions with the blockchain. Without this infrastructure, it makes it harder and costly to interact with the blockchain.
Maestro comes into play allowing DApp developers to quickly and easily interact with the blockchain via a Application Programming Interface or API.
APIs are common in the web development space and makes for an easy and understandable way for developers to get and push data to and from the blockchain.
Maestro has successfully launched its new series of features to allow for developers to build better and more engaging DApps.
