gun-rtc

WebRTC Communication layer for gunDB

Note: this project is under development and unfinished.

What is it

The idea is that you could replace

<script src="gun.js"></script>

with

<script src="gun-rtc.js"></script>

and automatically upgrade your boring websocket app to a decentralized, resiliant, offline-first, WebRTC driven app. Oh, and if WebRTC isn't supported, you can keep your websockets and still collab with the cool people on WebRTC.

What's the holdup?

We've been holding off the heavy development until gun's 0.3 release hit the masses. Now that most of the ecosystem has caught up with the release, we're ready to dive back in and build the future.

Update (05/17): through development, we've come to realize our plugin system could use some love. We're hoping to have a release out soon that allows us to build modules (like gun-rtc) without overloading and masking other plugins just to read and write data. After we've got that resolved, then we can push forward on gun-rtc without needing hackery.

Star this repository to get occasional project updates and to aid my narcissism.
