Okay, good morning everybody. We are Rails and I'm very glad to be here again to share what's the update from the Rails and which is our new plug-in system. So this is our team and this is me. And so what is Rails? Rails is kind of a web GIS like platform
00:22
like allow user to add contents on the digital earth like Photoshop, quite easy. And of course user can add like multiple layers by using spreadsheet datas. And of course user can also publish his project to the internet so everybody can like play around it,
00:40
use it and it is quite easy. That's the basic of like the beginning idea. And like other service, we also support the polyline, polygon, of course the 3D models, 3D tiles and images, a lot of things. And then we'll try to make it easy to use like Photoshop.
01:03
And then we release the first version to our climate and like our community and the people say, wow, it looks cool and they have much more crazy and interesting idea as long as our earth support like many, many features or even support them
01:21
to develop their own features by themselves more easily. So for our team, the most challenges is become how to expand the possibility of the earth. So our solution here is to create a plug-in system. So what is our plug-in system is we use QuickJS
01:41
and the web assembly to create like a sandbox. Well, in one hand, it can keep our system safe and in another hand, it can run JavaScript code inside. And for the UI part, we use iframe idea so user can develop, can directly write HTML and CSS to write the UI.
02:04
And for logic part, we like rearses post a lot of APIs to let the user to use. So you can see the plug-in becomes a bridge between the rearses and the third-party service like a CMS service database or something.
02:21
And there is a quick list of what has APIs we have now. So for example, the basic API like UI do show, it handles a basic logic and is like event API can hear everything happen on the earth, which is a real site and the visualizer API. And if your user want to manipulate the content,
02:41
he can use a layers API. And we are still working on to make it possible to more and more APIs for user to use. So, and that's the basic idea of our like plug-in system. And yeah, I will show something like a post for our community. So one of the good example is that the open weather plug-in
03:03
which can fetch the weather information in real time and show it in real time. And there's a Twitter box plug-in can like make this possible to show the Twitter content. And the cloud code, tech cloud and tech filter can filters like a content by the text.
03:22
And the distance measurement and they export the data like plug-ins can make it quite easy to use. So we also create like plug-in editor online to make it easy to start. And also from the next month we will release the plug-in marketplace, which means that developer
03:42
can like share their own plug-ins and everybody can install from this marketplace. And that's all basically, so thank you everybody. And we are, you can find the website there and we're also hiring new members. So thank you.
