Endorsit is intended to be a decentralized content ecosystem for all types of user-created content including articles, live videos, and web courses, acting as a permanent record of content operations that can be leveraged in numerous ways. The platform aims to be neutral and community-driven, allowing its users to judge the quality of content and subsequent rewards.
Neow3j
Announced at Neo Devcon 2 in 2019, Neow3j is a community-developed project that aims to accommodate Java and Android developers looking to build on the Neo blockchain.
Based on the Web3j SDK, the Neow3j library is lightweight and places a high priority on reliability and user-friendly blockchain integration, removing the need for developers to operate their own nodes in order to interact with the Neo network.
NeoResearch
Established in Brazil during 2017, NeoResearch is an open-source team with a strong background in academia and a focus on developing cutting-edge technologies for the Neo blockchain. As core developers of Neo, the co-founders of NeoResearch have made wide ranging contributions to the Neo protocol, in particular to its pioneering consensus mechanism, dBFT.
