So you can write SQL queries[1] in fastn documents, create dynamic urls[2], get request data[3], or write backend in wasm[4]. The input to sql queries are passed using bind paramet…

Completely agree, unfortunately the cool stuff is done by iroh team, so right now you can browse their docs: https://www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-dns .

We are using iroh, so you can start with https://www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-dns , and checkout their docs to understand how iroh itself works. The malai stuff is relative not very…

We are built on top of https://www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-dns , and iroh uses the public key as the node identifier. Unfortunately the iroh id is 64 char long, which can not be us…

It's open source. Or not depending on any company[1]. The overall malai/kulfi project is quite different than these projects, malai itself can be compared with these two maybe. [1]…

You are on the right track, this is bastion like setup, but without needing another ssh host. This is one layer on top of SSH, so all SSH security applies for ssh over kulfi, but y…

Looks like you got sucked into the fastn world. It's an open source full stack web development programming language we have created: fastn.com. We are building some fastn powered f…

Since its built in Rust, we can call it rus(t)-malai also :-)

So let's see, I am Amit Upadhyay, I am the (solo) founder and CEO of FifthTry, which is YC W21 company (we also have some other seed investment). We started with a documentation to…

Yes, we are currently using iroh provided relay servers. malai will soon connect with any relay server, so in future you can use ones provided by us, or run your own.

fastn is an ingredient to kulfi project. fastn.com is a full stack programming language we (FifthTry, Inc, the company behind these) have built, and it is the web server that is go…

We are using iroh[1] internally, so the question is does iroh support these things? The quickest way to answer this would be to test it. Can you help me with what kind of setup wou…

Kulfi is the official name of the project, and the name of the "peer to peer internet" "id52/identity based internet", so kulfi net. Kulfi App is going to be a browser like Google …

malai: cream that forms on top of milk when it cools down, its a flavor of kulfi. kulfi: a milk based ice cream / desert. Nothing to do with networking etc, just a desert I enjoyed…

Kulfi is a network (peer to peer) which support http/https even tcp can be sent over kulfi. Kulfi App is a web browser that talks kulfi protocol natively, so you can open kulfi:// …

Unlike tailscale/ngrok, malai is completely open source, does not rely on any company provided infrastructure (we have a http bridge to bridge http/tcp with http/kulfi at *.kulfi.s…

malai is a peer to peer network, and is a dead simple to share your local development HTTP server, without setting up tunnels, dealing with firewalls, or relying on cloud services.…

I strongly believe peer to peer is superior over centralized architectures that are commonplace today. If things are peer to peer, there is no central entity, then open source trul…

Wireguard is def comparable to iroh, so you are correct. We could have used Wireguard to build malai had malai been in Golang. iroh is wireguard for Rust (and slightly better becau…

Edited: fix a typo and clarify public vs key pair. Unlike ngrok, and they are a great product, I have used them for years, we are completely open source. Further we are peer to pee…

We built Malai to make it dead simple to share your local development server over peer-to-peer, without setting up tunnels, dealing with firewalls, or relying on cloud services. Wi…

We are building fastn[1], a programming language for authoring web content. This language is optimised for non developers, and can be easily learned by content team, marketing team…

This is not fair summary of the situation. Panics can be “caught”, most Rust web framework will catch panic when handling a http request and return 500, leaving other requests unaf…

Github allows you to mark a repository as a template repository. E.g., [1]. A template repository can be used to quickly create a repository, and used by all sorts of project start…

That is a Github issue. If you mark a repository on Github as template repository, they create this nice green button, "Use this template", which links to ` /generate`, but this bu…
