Local Peer-to-Peer API playground

This repo contains experiments to help inform the design of the Local Peer-to-Peer API proposal. Do not use any of this code yet, it not final, tested nor secure.

Examples

Check out the examples or run them on Replit:

Open points

• LP2P API
  • Initial implementation & example.
  • User agent PSK present & consume
  • DataChannel API & examples
  • WebTransport API & examples
  • User agent peer listing & selection
• OSP(C)
  • discovery, listen & dial
  • data-channel protocol extension
  • WebTransport Protocol interaction
    • Over OSP connection
    • Over dedicated QUIC connection
  • implement actual PAKE algorithm
• Various
  • Abstract LP2P API from underlying transport (to allow others like Wi-Fi Direct)
  • Lots of cleanup

Coding conventions

The lp2p package augments a web API and favors similarity to the web API over idiomatic Go. Note that async functions are implemented as blocking. The other packages such as ospc should be idiomatic Go.
