Project mention: Holepunch Unveils P2P Platform "Pear Runtime" | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-14

Love to see P2P coming back. Back in 2013 I built a P2P application platform called Firestr (https://www.firestr.com) that was targeted as an all in one platform to build and share graphical P2P apps. The apps were built using a built-in collaborative app editor. You could build P2P apps with friends using P2P!

You create a conversation with one or more people and can then launch apps into that conversation. The people on the other side didn't have to have the apps installed. If they liked an app, they can install it with one click and use it in their own conversations. If they wanted to change the app, they can do that too!

Despite how easy all these new P2P app frameworks are, none of them are as easy as Firestr was.
