Project mention: Show HN: TeaTime – static distributed library powered by SQLite, IPFS and GitHub | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-11-27

I had to look that term up <https://github.com/ipfs/helia#readme> but while sniffing around in their <https://github.com/ipfs/helia/wiki/Projects-using-Helia> I was reminded of https://github.com/orbitdb/orbitdb#readme which seems like it may be much less rolling your own parts

I think the closest you might get is something like the bittorrent dht. There are still bootstrap servers for the first few connections, but there's really no getting away from that, right?
