Wasn't it supposed to be open sourced today? Where can I find their code? Don't find any link in the docs / github search / etc... @Jeff Swann
It is all open source. They released like 100+ repos today. Or are you talking about Keet specifically, because this release isn’t anything to do with that. This is the engine that is driving Keet.
No no, I know that. Not talking about Keet. Just looking for the repo's for pear runtime, hypercore etc...
Most of it can be found just by exploring things at the holepunch repo. Here are a few of the links they shared. https://github.com/holepunchto/pear https://github.com/holepunchto/bare https://github.com/holepunchto/libjs Also here is an example app that they randomly built that they use to play music to each other while they work. Really fun a crazy idea, that one person plays the song and everyone else connects and listens in. Tossed together in a couple of hours apparently. https://github.com/holepunchto/pear-radio
The hypercore repos have been open source for a long time!
Aha, didn't know that.
Neeeeeeevermind, found 'em ✅
Everyone who actually builds things does in fact care about it.
Speaking with a group of developers who do exactly this and are making platform-less alternatives to a bunch of tools all seem to be using a variety of these to rework things that had been more complex previously. As well as the dev I’ve been working with on our project. We literally went back to the drawing board to accomplish a few things in a much cleaner way using a few of these just yesterday. So I don’t know what to tell you other than the fact that it’s highly valuable to have a set of tool that simplifies the P2P foundation of these apps. You can be overly dismissive if you like but maybe we can talk about this again, when Nostr is running over Pear instead of relays 😘
Will do. Would love some feedback when the super shitty alpha version drops 😂 It’s gonna do its job though and the problem we are solving has been a royal pain in my ass forever it seems. By god I will make the simplest, 2 easy steps, P2P file transfer app like my life depends on it.
