Sneakerweb: A peer-to-peer protocol for offline web publishing via physical media
By
GalaxyNova
Summary
The sneakerweb is a peer-to-peer protocol for decentralized web publishing that bypasses traditional DNS servers, domain registrars, and web hosts. Websites are stored directly on user devices and transferred between them via physical storage media (USB drives, SD cards, etc.) using .snk files. Users can browse collected sites offline in a standard web browser and share them physically. The project includes a CLI tool for browsing and maintaining a local collection of "sneakerwebsites."
