TEST 9 has been restarted – all data has been reset.
See this post for more details. You can keep using the same version of SAFE Launcher (v0.9.0).
Today, we are releasing TEST 9 as well as the first dev tutorial This tutorial series will differentiate SAFE from being seen as a storage network and allow people to realize the depth of the capabilities as we add new tutorials. SAFE does storage, but that’s only a small part of the story, we can now begin to make that clear.
This testnet is client-only. You can’t run your own vault.
To connect to TEST 9, you need to use SAFE Launcher v0.9.0. You won’t be able to connect to TEST 9 by using SAFE Launcher v0.8.0 (Alpha 1).
We think this testnet should be very interesting to try and we’re also excited to see the apps that devs will be creating with these new APIs. As always, this is a testnet and especially with the scope of current changes, some bugs might occur and hopefully they can get addressed quickly and removed from future tests.
We are planning to bring TEST 8 down next Monday (September 19).
SAFE Launcher v0.9.0
Each client account is limited to 500 PUTs. A PUT is a request to store a single chunk on the network (a file may contain many chunks). The maximum chunk size is 1 MB.
Please be aware that this test network will be reset periodically, wiping all data that is stored on it. We will announce this in a Dev Update (when possible) prior to taking it down.

SAFE Mail Tutorial v0.1.0
An example of an email app skeleton to allow developers to pick it up and add some basic functionality for a fully working email MVP. Then add further functionality using the APIs described in this tutorial, to make amazing communication tools in SAFE. We have tried very hard to not make a user-facing app as we want developers to see this as a tutorial and know they have everything they need for communications apps in SAFE and a bit more.
A first stage of the tutorial series and we hope you enjoy it and help us clean up any bugs (this was done extremely quickly) and help improve the SAFE Launcher APIs.

Learn how to build an email app that works entirely on the SAFE Network!
Instead of relying on an email service provider such as Gmail, or going through the trouble of running your own mail server, you can use the SAFE Network to build dynamic applications such as email and messaging apps.
