# VIMM Framework Development Update: Hive Integration Enhancements (January 3, 2025)

Hey VIMM community! Today I (@chiren) want to share the latest improvements I've made to the VIMM framework's core component, focusing on Hive blockchain integration and stream management.

## 🔄 Recent Updates

### 1. Enhanced Hive Integration
- Refactored Hive post creation logic to improve reliability
- Implemented better stream ID management in post creation
- Added robust error handling and logging for Hive interactions
- Updated default values for Hive post creation parameters

### 2. Stream Management Improvements
- Added new function to retrieve users by stream ID
- Improved stream key extraction and management
- Enhanced permlink generation with proper sanitization
- Streamlined post-publish workflow

### 3. Testing and Development
- Set up testing environment with zero HBD payout configuration
- Added comprehensive logging for debugging and monitoring
- Improved error handling across the platform

## 🔧 Technical Details
The recent changes focus on making the Hive integration more robust and reliable. Key improvements include:
- Sanitized stream ID handling in permlink generation
- Restructured post-publish event flow
- Enhanced user retrieval system
- Improved transcoder start logic
- Better error handling and logging throughout the system

## 📈 Development Status
I'm continuing to enhance the core functionality while ensuring stable integration with the Hive blockchain. These updates represent significant improvements in how VIMM Core handles stream publishing and blockchain interactions.

## 🚀 Next Steps
My immediate focus is on three key areas:

1. **Streams API Development**
   - Creating a comprehensive API interface for stream management
   - Building integration endpoints for vimm-chat and vimm-frontend
   - Implementing standardized stream data structures

2. **WebRTC Implementation**
   - Adding WebRTC protocol support
   - Implementing peer-to-peer streaming capabilities
   - Optimizing for real-time communication

3. **Low Latency HLS Support**
   - Implementing LL-HLS protocol
   - Optimizing chunk size and delivery
   - Reducing end-to-end latency

## 💡 For Developers
All changes are now available in the [VIMM-TV/vimm-core](https://github.com/VIMM-TV/vimm-core) repository. The project remains MIT licensed and open for contributions from the community.

Thank you for your interest in the VIMM project!

It's been a while since I posted a dev log indeed. Made some good progress on the frontend portion of the project recently. Aiming for a full demo up and running by mid June.

New post with more details coming soon!
