[media] Gitoxide celebrating 100k lines of Rust code 🎉
js-git is dormant but used by 30k+ projects, apparently, and is somewhat of a special case I think. It's niche but seems to fulfill it's intended purpose.

Release: Nano Multisig is finally here enabling ultra-secure funding!
Gun is an opinionated high level and complete solution, it may provide more than what you need. I would think a more modular alternative is suitable, something like using libp2p. Anyway, you should take a look at the dat ecosystem and the ipfs ecosystem. Also, a really neat and clever way to simply do distributed peer discovery, removing the need for a signalling server, is bitboot (it uses mainline DHT).
