Hey! I read some of your posts, welcome to the party 😄 Great to see other devs here.
Maybe an update is necessary?

Thanks for asking! Wish list item #1 - an overview of software development for the blockchain (Steemit focused, of course). Typical languages, where to find info, APIs, blockchain theory, tutorials, what others here are doing with the blockchain... Who to follow? I suspect the info is all here somewhere but it will be faster to find with some guidance.
The developer portal is at https://developers.steem.io/
The library ecosystem could be better an is mainly maintained by volunteers or Steemit Inc. devs in their spare time by the looks of it. There's a particular issue right now with steem-js that I mention in this post where you need to set a different WebSocket or RPC host manually.
Otherwise in terms of tutorials there aren't really any that I'm aware of. I had to piece it together myself! There are some tiny code snippets on the relevant libraries that go some way to help.
If you're comfortable with Node.js then you can read the code for my projects on the Steem FOSSbot organization or my person GitHub account. I follow a very open free and open source ethos so feel free to tinker and reuse any code. 🤓
There are loads of interesting project ideas in the FOSSbot project tracker, and I'll be announcing a new project very soon, looking for all kinds of contributors, so watch this space 😊
Thanks! I suppose most of us are used to piecing things together. 😊
