ArcBlock’s Developer Website Enables Developers to Build Custom Blockchains and DApps
Over the last year, ArcBlock has been busy engineering a next-generation blockchain platform that enables developers to build, manage and deploy decentralized applications easily. The goal was to create a Ruby on Rails like experience giving developers all the components they need to make everything work and allow them to simply concentrate on what they do best – write code.
The ArcBlock Developer Website is full of information related to the Forge Blockchain Application Framework, Open Chain Access Protocol and other developer tools and syntax important to get the most out of the ArcBlock blockchain platform. To start, developers can get the basics of how to set up a development environment locally or in the cloud and get an understanding of the core concepts needed to be successful with ArcBlock’s platform.
Forge Framework
To start, most developer getting started who are interested in building a DApps easily will look at the Forge Blockchain Application Framework. Forge Framework takes the hard work out of building DApps by providing the batteries needed for any DApp and letting developers focus on what they do best – write code.
ArcBlock wants developers to know that despite the broad capabilities, and tools available to developers that unlike most blockchain systems they are able to simply use the programming language SDK of their choice including Python, Java, Javascript, iOS, Android and more. ArcBlocks developer documentation is broken up into several key development areas:
- Installation
- Forge blockchain SDKs
- Developer Tools
- Architecture
- Forge RPC, Transactions and more
Within each section, explanations and definitions are provided along with key examples where needed. To help developers get started, ArcBlock also provides starter kits for the different SDKs that provide Dapp examples and basic building blocks to help anyone build their first Dapp in just a few steps.
Developers can also find public repo’s at https://www.github.com/arcblock and other engineering examples https://www.arcblock.io/en/categories/Engineering%20blog.
Open Chain Access Protocol
The second documentation area is for ArcBlock’s Open Chain Access Protocol (OCAP). OCAP is an industry first protocol for accessing and consuming underlying blockchains in a unified way. The goal of OCAP is simple, to make it easy for applications to work with different blockchains automatically and works by giving developers access to APIs that enable open connectivity and access to different blockchain protocols. Developers can also utilize GraphQL to create queries for fetching application data using a single interface. Developers can access the documentation here http://ocap-docs.arcblock.io/intro/ with the following categories:
- Introduction
- Quick Start
- OCAP SDK
- Tools
- Architecture
To help any developer get an understanding of OCAP, there are several bootstrap examples for different use cases including web, iOS, and Android along with comprehensive language support including Javascript, iOS, Android, Python, and others.
Blockchain Starter Kits
One of the fastest ways to start creating decentralized applications is ArcBlock’s Forge React Starter Kit. With the Starter Kit developers can immediately can bring thousands of React libraries and components to their DApp running on a Forge-powered blockchain. Visit ArcBlock’s Github page for more details.

Healthcare leaders gather at House of Commons to discuss productivity-boosting tech with MyStaff app
LONDON, Nov. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Healthcare leaders from 16 NHS trusts gathered at the House of Commons this week to see how Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust is using a groundbreaking new app that transforms staff access to information vital to their patients’ care.
The MyStaff app uses AI and automation to simplify the management of critical policies and procedures, reducing the time staff spend searching for information from almost 10 minutes to under 30 seconds. Over 12,000 of the Trust’s staff have signed up, and around 1,000 are using the app daily.
With £2bn pledged to help digitise the NHS and bring down waiting lists, such time-saving tech is high on healthcare’s agenda. Trust Chief Executive Matthew Hopkins introduced the session, which was hosted by David Burton-Sampson, MP for Southend West and Leigh, and saw technology strategists and users share their experiences of digitising vital healthcare operations.
Matthew said: “Our Trust is working to make the best use of digital technologies wherever this can help staff to provide the best possible care to our patients. MyStaff app is a versatile and easy-to-use tool that improves our governance processes and makes it easy for staff to access the vital clinical information they need when treating patients.”
The Trust developed MyStaff app with digital innovators Diligram, who have created a digital governance solution that helps ensure staff use the latest policies and guidance when delivering patient care. Document compliance rates have grown from 60% to 98%, whilst projections indicate the app could release 55,000 hours’ worth of staff capacity over 3 years, worth almost £4m in staff costs and giving staff more time on patient-facing care.
Diligram CEO Leslie Golding said: “We have worked closely with the Trust on developing groundbreaking technology that supports our healthcare heroes by simplifying access to essential information. We’re proud to be part of this brilliant example of positive digital change.”
