  • bifrost

    Cross-platform p2p daemon and library with pluggable transports and WebAssembly support. (by aperturerobotics)

    • Disagree :) Having a `examples/` or `demo/` directory is already good enough, and this repository even has one of those too! https://github.com/aperturerobotics/bifrost/tree/master/exam...

    One of the examples seems relatively easy to grasp if you're a web developer, about how to do HTTP forwarding: https://github.com/aperturerobotics/bifrost/blob/master/exam...

  • rust-libp2p

    The Rust Implementation of the libp2p networking stack.

    • It's a peer-to-peer "engine" with switchable components. Seems to run on different platforms (browsers, mobile, desktop, server).

    At a glance, it looks pretty much like libp2p (https://libp2p.io/) but seems to integrate with libp2p as well (meaning you should be able to use Bifrost on one end, and libp2p on the other), so I'm guessing there is at least some fundamental difference, but I cannot spot it. Seems to use slightly different terminology compared to libp2p.
