[WiP] Networks tutorial #5

Closed michielbdejong closed 6 years ago

michielbdejong commented 6 years ago

Just a work in progress. I think it would be good to add a tutorial like this, but I'll work on the Testnet and Streaming Payments tutorials first.

The development of this tutorial can also be used as a driver for Amundsen development.

also, vouch protocol. this would be the 7th and final tutorial in the 'Current Interledger' series:

  1. Letter Shop -> basic hashlock and ILP address concepts
  2. http-ilp -> more hands-on use of http-ilp related tools in shop and client development
  3. Streaming Payments -> show how to use http-ilp for streaming payments (although this is still not in rfcs!)
  4. Trustlines -> show how BTP is faster
  5. Multi-Transfer Payments -> important tutorial that introduces IPP, IPR, ILQP, and completes basic knowledge of how Interledger works
  6. Testnet of Testnets -> mainly about setting up testnet nodes, more showing off that we got it working than really many deep insights here. important though for when you want to deploy your shop or client from/to some existing crypto currency. This uses Amundsen as an open relay.
  7. Connectors (this one) -> advanced topics for when you want to run a connector: trust model, vouch, ccp, how routing works. Explains that open relay would be unwise on main net.

Maybe merge 6 and 7 into one 'Networks' tutorial. We still need a 7th tutorial then, to cover payment channels.

michielbdejong commented 6 years ago

made some nice progress with this today; now running into a bug where ippcf seems to send an unexpected info request to Amundsen (running in a screen on the server at the moment).

I'm making this tutorial teach:

After this tutorial, I think most important topics have been given a place, except payment channels and SPSP.
