As a developer, its important to keep up to date with new features being added to the network.
The two main ways to do this is to keep an eye on the in-progress HIP's (Hedera Improvement Proposals) and when those are being deployed to the network.
HIP's are the lifeblood of the network. Anyone is able to submit a HIP for anything they think would help the network.
You can find the official HIP site , with a list of all in-progress HIP's . explains the process for submitting and following a HIP through the process of it eventually getting deployed to mainnet for the entire network to enjoy.
If you think of something that could improve the network - submit a HIP!

When the network undergoes an update, it becomes unavailable.
If you are experiencing unexpected errors in your app, you should first check the to ensure the network is available.
