willow-rs

Protocols for synchronisable data stores. The best parts? Fine-grained permissions, a keen approach to privacy, destructive edits, and a dainty bandwidth and memory footprint.

Eventually, this repo will house Rust implementations of

• The Willow Data Model, a mutable eventually-consistent store with improved deletion,
• Willow Sideloading protocol, eventually consistent data delivered by any means possible,
• Meadowcap, a capability system configurable to different social contexts,
• and Willow General Purpose Sync Protocol, private and efficient synchronisation of Willow stores,

probably implemented in that order.

We welcome contributions! If you're looking for contribution ideas, please see the repo's issues, milestones, and projects.
