What will happen in your session?
Participants will create websites using Dat and beaker browser before looking into self-hosting options for Dat based websites on the distributed web. The first half of the session will be spent introducing participants to beaker browser and Dat command line before setting up permanent hosting solutions using Homebase on user’s computers and raspberry pi microcomputers.
What is the goal or outcome of your session?
To learn about the p2p distributed internet, create a self-hosted DAT server and build a community that is interested in self-hosting and supporting the development of the distributed internet. Participants will learn how to make a website using p2p hypermedia protocols using beaker browser and Dat before installing the dependencies to run a Homebase Dat node that can host their websites on the p2p web.
If your session requires additional materials or electronic equipment, please outline your needs.
Extension leads for multiple power points is necessary. Our workshop is best suited for people with Linux or Mac computers, Tablet device users can take part but will be limited to publishing (no hosting). We will also aim to provide a number of RPI's for anyone that wants to deploy a Homebase Dat Server on a Raspberry Pi device.
