AltNet
a peer to peer decentralized internet
A peer-to-peer internet. Sites, files, identities — and a family of apps to use them. The first app is shipping now. The internet was supposed to belong to everyone. Somewhere along the way, three companies took it. We’re giving it back — and it’s live now. Everyone is the network. Install an AltNet app. Your computer joins the network. The more people who join, the stronger it gets. AltNet Studio. The desktop client. Run a node. Browsealt sites in any browser. Publish your own.

AltNet Studio is the desktop application that connects your computer to the AltNet peer-to-peer network. It runs a background node, routes .alt names through your browser, lets you request a .alt name, and publishes the folder you point it at. One cross-platform codebase. Built with Wails v2 (Go + a vanilla-JS frontend). The protocol/daemon lives in the separate AltNet repo. 06Notes Things to know. Early release — v0.8 is the first public build. Feedback welcome on the source repo. No account needed to browse .alt sites. An admin-approved account is required to publish. AltNet Studio launches the altnet daemon as a child process and expects the binary next to it (altnet.exe on Windows, altnet on Linux). Protocol & daemon live in the separate AltNet protocol repo. Studio is the desktop client.
