🚀 And another, but (hopefully) the last one! @iroh.computer 1.0.0-rc.1 is out now. Better hole punching for everyone. Now is the time to test and upgrade! www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-1-...

Post-quantum security has been a frequently-asked question for as long as iroh exists. We're happy to report iroh can do PQC now! Read about it and all the nuance: www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-po... #rust

After four years of work and more than 50 releases, I'm close to becoming a 1.0 adult. www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-1-...

v0.98 is live! www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-0-...

Who says you need to buy new hardware? It's always a magic feeling when you can supercharge old Android-based terminals and Windows 7 machines with peer-to-peer! www.iroh.computer/blog/paycode

Friends at Datum are cooking. Share your localhost to the internet with Datum Desktop! www.datum.net/blog/introdu...

Over the last two years we spent tons of effort into writing a #rust QUIC multipath & NAT traversal implementation. Beyond iroh, we're now ready to share it as a building block for others to use! www.iroh.computer/blog/noq-ann...

v0.97 is out & it's a biggie: custom transports, preset API, embeddable relay server, address filtering, and a switch to our own QUIC implementation! www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-0-...

iroh 🤝 MoQ (media over QUIC) It's really cool when APIs click together like Lego bricks.

Our latest blog post from @rklaehn.bsky.social is the deep dive on DDOS protection in QUIC you always wanted: www.iroh.computer/blog/quic-pa...

Got @iroh.computer to work on the smallest device yet. An ESP32 with 4MB of application memory and 4MB of heap. This is a horribly patched version, but nothing drastic, just reducing deps.

who said the bay is dead? we're keeping the hacker vibe alive in Oakland, but this decade will be rust flavored -- with talks from n0.computer, dioxus, zed, and goose! luma.com/cyu67mpz

@pvh.ca speaks truth, but there's one more corner in the design space: you can federate the infrastructure instead of centralizing it. That's the choice we made for iroh relays: you can run your own (it's OSS!), and endpoints connected to your relay can talk to endpoints connected to other relays.

The version number doesn't do it justice. This is the foundation for 1.0 and for many exciting features that will happen under the hood during the 1.0 series. It is also a big step for our plan to build iroh on existing IETF RFCs and RFC drafts as much as possible.

It's been a while, but: I'm 0.96 versions old now! This has been a major undertaking. My inner functioning has been comprehensively reworked and is now based on QUIC multipath and hole punching*within* the QUIC networking stack. This release is the biggest step towards 1.0 for me. Read more:

we have an all new docs site! More examples! Better Explainers! Come check it! docs.iroh.computer

Really interesting read. I'm not a big fan of Bitchat, but mesh networks in general could be a leap forward. Wondering whether something like this could be paired with @iroh.computer Wi-Fi Aware / BLE Network combined with irohs capabilities? Especially now with multi-path?

My main branch now has holepunching implemented *inside* the QUIC stack. We've implemented the QUIC multipath draft to keep track of all the paths inside the QUIC networking stack. CI is green and we've already punched a lots of firewalls in the real world! #rustlang github.com/n0-computer/...

Once I got over the amazement of @iroh.computer 's reliable encrypted P2P connectivity, the next unlock was the ease of protocol stacking (and the modularity that affords).

Our friends from the #WillowProtocol have released Ufotofu: an alternative to #rustlang streams, sinks, AsyncRead & AsyncWrite. They rather think of it as producers and consumers. Check it out! It's a very principled and consistent design. worm-blossom.org/ufotofu/

We're late posting this on the main account - but yeah, check this out!

my v0.94 release is a biggie. Endpoint presets, dynamic relay map changes, and the word "node" is ded to me www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-0-...

New blog post! How Streamplace Works: Syndication Up until now, most Streamplace users have been using one big server at stream.place. With Streamplace 0.8, you can actually replicate streams on your own nodes. Borrowing a term from broadcast TV, we call this syndication. Here's how it works:

sup! my v0.93 release is out and now you can just call .online() if you want to know if you're online. It's great. Check it out. www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-0-...

I'll be in Bucharest next week, talking about @iroh.computer and BLAKE3. There will also be a rust workshop.

Sup frens I have a DHT protocol now: www.iroh.computer/blog/lets-wr...

*community intensifies* The two biggest wins of my latest release are from outside contributors! www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-0-...

QUIC Address Discovery in @iroh.computer is pretty neat www.iroh.computer/blog/qad

A few things motivate this: * raw UDP packets can get lost in transmission. Which means no holepunch 4 u. QUIC gets us ACK’d packets. * encryption is a good thing. More stuff Iroh does so you don’t have to.

Did you know that we like QUIC? We like it so much we're replacing our use of STUN over UDP with QUIC address discovery! We've contributed an implementation of that standard to the quinn #rust library, and are now using it. www.iroh.computer/blog/qad

New cross.stream release v0.6.1, highlight feature: Expose your streams with @iroh.computer 's peer-to-peer QUIC networking Full release notes: github.com/cablehead/xs...

Hypha members are working alongside @iame.li‬ and ‪@iroh.computer on Streamplace. More here on what we're building and how it'll work buff.ly/xqpYeZ8

We're trying to have the best backtraces and error handling in the #rust library ecosystem. We've landed on snafu and our own companion crate n0-snafu. And we wrote about that! www.iroh.computer/blog/error-h...

framing messages is the basis for many/most protocols in @iroh.computer and many other transports, learn the basics today with @b5.bsky.social www.iroh.computer/blog/message...

We want you to build protocols! For that, you need to know about message framing. Conveniently, we produced a video about doing this in #rust on top of #QUIC with iroh :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6bB...

I am (going to be) multi-patheded

I'm thoroughly enjoying my breaking 0.9x releases ahead of 1.0 😁 This time: A new relay protocol! But: This gives me a better handshake 🤝, some future optimization potential 🚀 and removes non-WebSocket code paths 🔥 All about this & what it means for relay compatibility in the release blog post:

orange site giving dumbpipe.dev some love on a sunday 😎

If you're into big data use cases, follow Rüdiger Klaehn's work on @iroh.computer, for example this blog post: www.iroh.computer/blog/blake3-...

The actor pattern works really well in #async #rust. What if you could take your actors and take them over the network? Sometimes. If you want to. This has been a pattern we (the iroh team) used for some CLIs and networked tools. And now we wrote about a crate we use to do that: IRPC! ("iroh RPC")

I'm not even an adult 1.0 library yet and I'm already buried in cool projects of all stages we haven't talked about yet! So let me introduce you to 11 cool projects from our awesome list today 😄 github.com/n0-computer/...

The "Stop Killing Games" initiative is very close to 1M EU signatures! (the requirement for the commission to take action) The goal is to prevent games publishers and developers from killing games after you've bought them. Let's talk about this & what that's go to do with us 👀 #stopkillinggames

New Release! v0.90.0! www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-0-... We’re jumping to v0.90 as the canary release series leading to 1.0. If you’re cool working on the bleeding edge, use 0.90. If you want to wait for 1.0, stick with v0.35.x. until we cut 1.0 toward the end of the year. We'll support both.

Look mom I'm famous. oh shoot I forgot I'm software & don't have a mother.

Someone recommended I check out iroh for p2p @buttplug.io connectors and now I find out they're on their way to being an adult rust library anyways! I look forward to not being so alone in the adult rust library ecosystem!

We spent a while really getting to know the 0-RTT API in QUIC, it was interesting!

Do you want to know how zero-rtt connections work in TLS and QUIC? Read our blog post about how to use zero-rtt in @iroh.computer There is also a demo that you can try out to see the difference. www.iroh.computer/blog/0rtt-api

Huge congrats to the @nousresearch.com team on the Psyche announcement! nousresearch.com/nous-psyche/ Watch an LLM get trained on computers linked up with @iroh.computer! psyche.network

It's been a while, but I've gotten 0.35 versions old yesterday! Really getting close to becoming an adult 1.0 #rust library, in fact - the next release will be my release candidate. This release contains metrics collection improvements and some small API tweaks ✌️ www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-0-...
