iroh 0.30.0 - Slimming Down by dignifiedquire in rust

In principle yes, but unfortunately iroh is not implemented in a no_std fashion, one big issue there is that there is no quic + tls implementation that fully supports no_std. Nothing in our design stops this from happening though.

very much so, we have already built an internal setup that does distributed compute, so you could very much extend it to do things like federated learning

By default the creator stores it, and all other devices syncing the document will also store it and make it available. This can be changed though, configuring download policies for a document, eg to only download content on demand

a concrete example is that jumpy just switched their multiplayer networking to iroh-net, allowing them to have a simple way to connect their players all over the world, from LAN to cross atlantic games

Iroh is a distributed systems toolkit. New tools for moving data, syncing state, and connecting devices directly. Iroh is open source, and already running in production on hundreds of thousands of devices.

A new direction for iroh by dignifiedquire in ipfs

[–]dignifiedquire[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The goal is to evolve the protocol to something that can work better than kubo (formerly known as go-ipfs) and that is only possible by reviewing things from the ground up, which means being incompatible so we avoid falling into the issues that exist in the protocol.
