VonageDev July Newsletter
In this month’s newsletter, you will: see what we’ve been working on and what we’ve released in Q2, catch up with the latest posts from the Vonage Developer Blog, and learn about upcoming events where you can meet the Vonage Developer Relations Team.

Releases
The second quarter of 2022 has been very busy here at Vonage, continuing the hectic pace set during the first quarter. Read on to discover what we worked on and achieved during Q2.

Q2 2022: Vonage Developer News Recap
https://ww3.nexmo.com/e/803603/m-em-Recipient-EncodedEmail--c/2srm2v/1481062462?h=12qI82Qpfhbj7hr9o-C8S4VwmNvBOx1EvsCDGNQigys

One of our goals is to make the developers’ lives easier, and that’s what we focused on in Q2. We’re happy to announce that we have a new API Status Page and that our Server SDKs now support the Messages API! Last quarter, we also worked on new projects, like a sample app that uses Flutter and the Vonage Video API, and the Vonage 2FA WordPress plugin, which has now been realized.

We are also proud of our Video API Experience Composer, which allows users to add new customized video streams to existing Vonage sessions. While we wait for this feature to go GA next quarter, we wrote the article below to explain why it is great.

Why Experience Composer API Is Great
https://ww3.nexmo.com/e/803603/m-em-Recipient-EncodedEmail--c/2srm2y/1481062462?h=12qI82Qpfhbj7hr9o-C8S4VwmNvBOx1EvsCDGNQigys

Video conferencing is a powerful tool that enables whiteboarding, sharing slides, and more, but these actions were previously hidden from the stream. With Experience Composer, this problem is solved — "It streams what you see."

New Flutter 3 Project for Vonage Video SDK
https://ww3.nexmo.com/e/803603/m-em-Recipient-EncodedEmail--c/2srm32/1481062462?h=12qI82Qpfhbj7hr9o-C8S4VwmNvBOx1EvsCDGNQigys

Vonage has released a new open-source Flutter 3 project for its video SDK. This GitHub sample project highlights how you can make use of both the Android and iOS native Video SDKs to build a cross-platform application with video calling functionality.

The Vonage Messages API Is Now in Our Server SDKs
https://ww3.nexmo.com/e/803603/m-em-Recipient-EncodedEmail--c/2srm35/1481062462?h=12qI82Qpfhbj7hr9o-C8S4VwmNvBOx1EvsCDGNQigys

Need to add SMS, MMS, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, or Viber to your application? Add one or add them all with our Messages API. Now you can do so directly from your Vonage SDK. This post explains how!

Latest from the Blog
The Vonage Developer Blog regularly publishes examples of how Vonage APIs can be used, plus inspirational posts from the Developer Relations Team. Check out our latest articles!
