I'm working on an introductory #book about #decentralisation protocols. 🦄
It serves as a taster for different technologies, and provides you with a path forward to deepen your studies if you're so inclined.
I'll cover #ActivityPub, #Hyper, #IPFS, and #SSB. Each chapter is a brief intro and a hands-on project using #JavaScript.

we also updated the description of the file devices, and implemented some minor corrections.
hope you enjoy it!

Who else in my fedi bubble is into #CreativeWriting? I want to follow more people here who are into writing and storytelling.
