In order to keep some of the followers still here on Medium, we wanted to provide a quick recap on some of the things that have been published over at The Corner Blog's new home https://developer.squareup.com/blog (in case you didn't know that already). We'll just be doing a quick summary of each new thing, but you can check out each topic in detail over at our new home. Manage Team Data from Any Platform with Square Team API We released a new Team API to allow managing Team data from any platform. You can track and edit large volumes of team member data automatically and synchronize data with any third-party platform in real time! Introducing Hephaestus In order to make dependency injection with Dagger 2 easier, we had created Hephaestus. It is an open source compiler plugin that automatically merges Dagger modules and component interfaces to make development more enjoyable. API Explorer Moves to General Availability The Square Developer team also transitioned the API Explorer from Beta to GA, bringing with it a lot of improvements to make testing Square APIs much more enjoyable and easy. Kubernetes - Pod Security Policies The cloud team at Square also did a write-up that provides some useful guidance and examples for handling Pod Security in Kubernetes. Reward Customers Wherever They Shop with Loyalty API and Customers API Additionally, Square Loyalty now has an API to make providing rewards to customers on other platforms. Using the Customers API and Loyalty API in combination can allow any developer to create a great rewards system, no matter where their customers are. Announcing Square Terminal API Beta Finally, we also released Terminal API, which lets you programmatically take payments using Square Terminal. This API allows developers to connect Square Terminal, an all-in-one card payments device, to their custom-built POS systems, no matter which platforms or operating systems they're developed on. Now that isn't everything that we've published since you've
