Ask HN: Would anyone be interested in making something like this? Or using it?
A library to create p2p networks
Introduction
Any p2p network is a graph of interconnected nodes. A mesh network. The core components of a mesh network are:
-A node can connect to other nodes. -Nodes can send each other messages in the p2p network. -Received messages are parsed and acted upon by nodes.
Goal
Provide an easy api to be able to create a node Provide an easy and flexible way to define the network protocol Provide an easy way to bootstrap a network Provide a network monitoring tool
I've started building this out and will keep adding features to each core feature. Configurable connecting policies. Configurable messaging, broadcasting, signing, encrypting policies. Configurable network topologies.
