Next steps

Note that the little test DApp we created for this workshop is very inefficient. For example, fetching the messages by directly calling a method on the smart contract is not the best way to do it. You could use an API between your DApp and the associated smart contract, such as The Graph, to access the relevant data more quickly. Same thing for the whole post creation and liking.
