make the p2p web with dat's primitives
Raw
dat-quickstart.md

low level primitives (in ascending abstraction)

  • hypercore works with individual posts in an append-only feed
  • hyperdrive abstracted filestore / works with files
  • hyperdiscovery create p2p swarms for hypercores, hyperdrives, and hyperdbs
  • hyperdb key-value database

higher level abstractions

  • webdb database; basically a document(?) store
  • dat-node built ontop of hypercore & hyperdrive, abstracts a bunch of stuff; less complex but also less flexible

hypercore + hyperdiscovery example
