Arcan-A12 Directory
Server side scripting API for Arcan's directory server
A12 is an explorative p2p protocol for fast and secure remote application interactions. Current desktop protocols are locked inside the constraints of their origins, and most of these have significant security and privacy issues. As a result, we've come to depend heavily on web frontends as the universal desktop application corset - which in return has caused a massive complication and overloading of the browser.
A12 establish a secure and interconnected network of personal compute devices, includes peer-to-peer channels and cryptography components. This project add a directory server that can be used as a trusted 3rd party rendezvous to establish such channels. It will expand the scripting API towards writing assistive 'apps' that can complement or split the workload handled on client devices; provide state synchronization and indexing/search between dynamic mesh networks created by linking directory servers together; dynamically launch and attach controlled sources.
