### BUILDER UPDATE: Jan 27 - Jan 29, 2024 (posted via [Build DAO Gateway](https://nearbuilders.org/feed?hashtag=update)) **✅ DONE** - After our conversation with Megha and her suggestion to use Playwright for testing, I have added Playwright Test framework and validated it fits our needs to ensure libraries quality. After validating that it works, I have created the first test for CryptoJS library. [Link to PR](https://github.com/NEARBuilders/sdks.near/pull/4) - Lens SDK - I have [opened and merged a PR](https://github.com/NEARBuilders/sdks.near/pull/5) for the Lens Alpha version, all the methods from Publication, Search, Transactions and Notification APIs are implemented, also I have set the alpha release label on each dependency preparing it to be the first Lens SDK release - I have started testing the Lens SDK Alpha version, for this, I have created an Example component where each endpoint will be listed in a panel with each API functionality. Fully tested and working: Authentication API, Profile API endpoints. All the fixes will be [here](https://github.com/NEARBuilders/sdks.near/pull/7) - I have added support to allow releases for $Loader dependencies - crucial feature for the upcoming Lens SDK Alpha release that will allow to set different versions at different block heights, making other devs life easier while allowing to keep working on library improvements. Examples: @sdks/lens#alpha, @sdks/lens#latest. [More info](https://github.com/NEARBuilders/sdks.near/pull/6) - Thanks to Elliot feedback, I have added support for downloading a huge amount of components when cloning an account using bos-workspace + added feature to initialized bos.config.json once the cloning finishes **⏩ NEXT** - Prepare the release of Lens SDK Alpha happening on January 31st!! - Continue / Finish working on Abstracting hackathon project (frensly) **🛑 BLOCKERS** - None #build #update
