Some documentation on how to use this would be great. I understand the core concepts of WASM, WebRTC, and DHT (not specifically Chord), but it's not obvious how to actually use this.

The fork me on GitHub button is too close to the create new node button on mobile.

Also, can't tell, but does the webrtc client overcome this bug?

Probably not. I have a theory that webrtc hasn't found it's footing because the native client doesn't appear to appropriately error out large messages.
