0x Dev Digest: May 2023
A round-up of the latest 0x news, product updates, and developer resources.
Welcome to the first ever newsletter for the all-new 0x 👋, where each month we will share the latest news, product updates, and developer resources.
Let's dive in 👇
Say hi to the new 0x
We recently launched the all-new 0x, developers’ one-stop shop to build financial products on crypto rails. 0x now offers a fully integrated suite of APIs designed to eliminate complexity and reduce the infrastructure overhead of building financial products in a multi-chain world. 0x enables developers and teams of all sizes to build better products, faster.
Here’s a quick rundown of what’s new:
- 0x Dashboard is your new homebase for all things 0x
- We are launching three new APIs this year: Tx History, Token Registry, and Orderbook
- We have a new brand identity and website
- 0x API is now Swap API
- AI-enhanced developer docs
Jessica Lin and Michael Wong recently sat down with Eric from 0x Protocol and Teju from the 0x Developer Experience team to walk through the all-new 0x. Check it out below:
0x Dashboard
0x Dashboard is your new home base for all things 0x.
The dashboard allows developers and teams to start using our APIs, for free, in under five minutes. Through the dashboard, teams can manage multiple 0x integrations, get access to new APIs, and tap into more developer resources.
Starting in June, all API requests without an API key will return an error. If you haven’t already, set up an account here to generate your own API key for free.
