B4X on twitter

[alwaysbusy]

Just did a search or B4X on twitter and I don't seem to find many of them.
Are there any forum members I should follow who are posting interesting B4X projects on twitter?

Mine is @RealAlwaysBusy

Spreading the word on B4X...

actually i am a little bit embarrassed to say this but i don't know how twitter works.

when i upload a youtube video i share the link also in twitter but what means all those # signs there?

if you write #[username] will it send him a notification?

i would like to post more tweets in twitter after i understand how to do it right. so a short tutorial is appreciated

What IS Twitter?

@ilan <-- this is also in twitter for sending a notification

# is used for keywords. E.g. using #B4X creates a tag. People interested in B4X can now simply search on #B4X and find all the tweets talking about that. The trick is of course finding #tags which are trending, so people searching for e.g. #android find tweets about B4X.

I know, the benefit is to create new users...
But as i am allready here, the forum is enough for me
I don't like to follow one product on several different plattforms. I don't even have a twitter or facebook account.

ok so if i include in my tweet #B4X it will create a link to it and people that will click on it will find the #B4X page with all tweets that include that tag? including the one i just created?

thank you

the @ must be a Twitter member, so in case you use @RealAlwaysBusy, then I get a notification. Or using @BASIC4ANDROID will notify Erels twitter account.

so if i include in my tweet #B4X

Not a link, but a search word. Clicking on it IN twitter, will give you a list of all the tweets also using #B4X in their tweet

show is creating those Tags

yes, I've being trying to lauch the #B4X tag, but with little success as not many twitters are using it. So the more forum members also start using the #B4X tag in their tweets, the more the tag will 'trend'

its amazing how fast twitter works. i mean there may be billions of tweets and when you click on the #Tag it filters all tweets with this #Tags. how can it be so fast???

Good database-structure/search-engine

Posting on Twitter is quite easy

Sub Button1_Click
    Dim share As Intent
    share.Initialize(share.ACTION_VIEW,"https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=B4X - Android, iOS, desktop, server and IoT programming tools&url=https://www.b4x.com")
    StartActivity(share)
End Sub

"NoSQL" is the buzzword to summarize it.

As mentioned here:

Advantages of NoSQL DB over RDBMS

• No complex joins
• Easy to scale NoSQL database
• NoSQL supports dynamic queries on documents.

Where to Use a NoSQL Database
NoSQL is most effective when dealing with:

• Big data
• Multiple users
• Mobile infrastructure
• Content delivery and management

A very easy and secure way to get a grip on that is the Firebase Database (it's based on MongoDb I think). Firebase is free until up to 100 Simultaneous connections which is sufficient for development.

NoSQL strucures?
According to this:

NoSQL data modeling often starts from the application-specific queries as opposed to relational modeling:

• Relational modeling is typically driven by the structure of available data. The main design theme is “What answers do I have?”
• NoSQL data modeling is typically driven by application-specific access patterns, i.e. the types of queries to be supported. The main design theme is “What questions do I have?”

Don't even think about to convert your SQL data to NoSQL - it is a different concept.

The access to the Firebase database is possible in 2 ways:

1. REST API via http
2. Realtime Db via library

So - master the little learning curve and your mobile apps will have the same performance as twitter....
