PiN is an open-source project launching today (PI Day)
that builds a decentralized web hosting network on Raspberry
Pis and any device that wants to participate.
Technical stack:
- Go daemon (meshd) using libp2p + Kademlia DHT
- Content-addressed storage (SHA-256 CIDs)
- Proof-of-service ledger in SQLite with gossip-based sync
- Tauri app for resource scheduling
- nginx embedded for HTTP serving
Design questions I'd love feedback on:
- Is libp2p overhead acceptable on a Pi Zero?
- Gossip vs lightweight BFT consensus at scale?
- 24-hour epochs for Hash calculation — right granularity?
