Our web is a world of silos, we need to decentralize that! Let's try to make it simple, and without the drawbacks normally associated with blockchain dApps. In python, of course.
I started working on decentralized applications projects and didn't really find my way as a pythonista there. Plus, blockchains are slow, clunky... What if we used AsyncIO and latest python stuff to upgrade this?
I'll present Aleph.im, a layer-2 network (complicated words for something simple!) made in Python, and how to make a simple decentralized app using it.
Features of applications made with Aleph.im:
- Elliptic curve identity and message signing
- Free and instant actions
- No server needed, the network does that
- Large data storage (medias, text contents, key-value stores)
- Virtual machines
