UPDATE: Recent SmartThings User Experience & Platform Performance

[SBDOBRESCU (Bobby)]

Was searching for a key word and bumped into this thread. What a throw back Wednesday this is

Where have all the good times gone?

At the Samsung conference Alex was quoted as saying "Hawkinson said that developers have thus far built more than 11,000 smart apps for the SmartThings platform, and that the platform supports more than 7400 device types altogether." I’m a big fan, don’t get me wrong, but with a little over 100 supported items in the official spreadsheet and a handful of apps to choose from when looking for solutions I am at a loss. Why do we constantly ask the community for code/devices to do things when there is this massive library somewhere? With 7400 devices you would think we could go out and buy almost any Zigbee or Z-wave item in the world and have it running in minutes. Yes, there might be a littel sarcasm there.
