hyperhyperspace-core VS miniflare

Not all CRDT libraries focus on text editing. For example, I'm working on a Byzantine fault tolerant general-purpose data sync library loosely based on CRDTs: https://www.hyperhyperspace.org

I'm finding it painfully difficult but it is evolving steadily.

I'm thinking there's an interesting parallel between my browser-based p2p project [1] and cloudflare workers / DurableObjects. Instead of DurableObjects, we got HashedObjects [2], and instead of workers running on an edge network somewhere, we got in-browser p2p nodes running a browser-to-browser mesh network.

I agree with the author on the merits of the file abstraction, but I think the concept should be updated for networked devices. We need file formats that support both offline usage and seamless sync over the network.

For example, here I use a merkle DAG-based file format to represent CRDT-like types:

https://www.hyperhyperspace.org

The resulting abstraction can be universally looked up using a hash (or short sequence of words), can be modified offline and synchronized flawlessly. It's still WIP (for example, you still can't export it to an actual file, hehe).

> I've been kicking around the idea of writing a CRDT-based editor using this model.

I got around to creating a data layer (p2p, browser-based, CRDT-backed) for something like this:

I'd be interested in collaborating on your editor

I'm working on it, Ben [1].

Believe me, it is not easy thing to do.

Look at Hyper Hyper Space!

Its goals are similar, the approach is more pragmatic (p2p data layer using standard web browsers and webrtc).

Recently Cloudflare introduces Miniflare. As its name suggests, Miniflare is a feature-rich but miniature version of Cloudflare worker. Miniflare is a simulator that provides an environment for developing and testing Cloudflare worker scripts locally. Miniflare is written in typescript and supports most of the Cloudflare worker features like the KV database, durable objects, WebSockets, etc.

Another implementation of the above is Cloudfare workers you might be capable of grasp some ideas from here https://miniflare.dev

Is there an ETA on Miniflare v3? Ran into a problem recently using overlapping keys with forward slashes as they were not sanitized properly: https://github.com/cloudflare/miniflare/issues/167

The KV API is only available on Cloudflare Workers. But, during development, Rakkas runs our app on Node.js. Fortunately, the Miniflare project has a KV implementation for Node. The other two packages that we've installed (@miniflare/kv and @miniflare/storage-memory) are what we need to be able to use the KV API during development. Let's create a src/kv-mock.ts file and create a local KV store to store our ublog posts ("twits") while testing:

I used hono (a wrapper around miniflare) to handle some of the boilerplate around request and routing logic. It's also refreshingly fast! 🔥

The simple explanation is that I'm proposing use of the Service Worker API. Cloudflare offers a flat, free, 100k requests a day if you can keep it cutting edge, has local development and testing options with miniflare and a key/value (KV) store.

When we run the dev script, this will ensure that the local runtime environment Miniflare will bind a KV with the name sessionStorage to our Pages function.

Slshx is a library for building strongly-typed Discord commands (https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/application...) that run on Cloudflare Workers (https://workers.cloudflare.com/), using a React-inspired syntax (hooks and JSX). It supports all Discord command types/options, autocomplete and interactive message components. During development, it automatically deploys your commands whenever you change your code.

I created this because I think Cloudflare Workers are a great fit for hosting Discord commands, but there wasn't an easy way to get started that had a fun development experience. I also wanted to see what a Miniflare-first (https://github.com/cloudflare/miniflare) library could look like.
