RE: Steemit Android App - Automated build and first retrieval of data - Do we have Designers willing to contribute?

Is this hitting against steemit.com or somehow against the blockchain?

Does steemit.com have an API?

    It is actually using the steem json rpc protocol. So if steemit would be down this would still work. Currently I use wss://this.piston.rocks as backend. It is planned that you can change the url to your liking enabling anybody to use their own or other servers. You can read more about the actually implementation here: https://steemit.com/android/@razem-io/building-an-android-app-for-steemit
