Hello, people and companies who make technology happen. We’ve enriched search results to not only include technology stories but also include people and companies. By measuring reader engagement for companies on HackerNoon, we’ve ranked all companies via our Evergreen Index. This is intended as a share of voice metric for the public consciousness’s interest in a company over time. All companies’ Evergreen rankings, and stock prices for public companies, are freely available within the app.

For writing, we’ve added speech to text instant documentation. Great for capturing ideas quickly. Just talking things out is blogging! Start your next post or outline by simply talking to the HackerNoon app. For learning, we’ve added tech topic pages like #bitcoin or #javascript, to organize stories by subject matter. They are discoverable in search and featured on the story page. For accessibility, we’ve now added 70+ more language homepages. For life, we want you to learn any technology!

Fewer distractions, smarter API calls, and “For You” reading recommendations. This 2.05 release more subtly hides navigation, putting the blog post itself more front and center. We rewrote some API calls and built a new Comments API. Quality comments made in this app get boosted on HackerNoon.com and around the web. Lastly, we added a “For You” recommendation engine based on your reading history, our Editing Protocol, and a lite layer of AI. We’re here to help you find your next technology!

Faster app launches and homepage loads—because milliseconds matter. The integrated Chowa text editor (chowa.tech) supports real-time collaborative blogging. Start a collaborative post from a blank draft or choose from hundreds of blogging templates. HackerNoon re-thought and rebuilt how company rankings work to better measure which companies are technically next. There’s also a number of UX and design improvements to the audio blog player. More speed, less bloat, and timely signals.
