What you're describing sounds like the (now unfashionably old and un-hyped as a category) `dWeb` ecosystem. As far as I've seen, 'web3' has meant "websites that use crypto wallets for login and store data in a block

Declarative syntax to express {HT|X|...}ML/DOM-like structures in your source code are a big win if that's a significant percentage of the boilerplate code you have to write. E.g.: Literal HTML ``` <div class="active"

Meshtastic can carry a bit more data per packet -- 200-ish bytes, IIRC -- but the same duty cycle/dwell time constraints apply. The routing model also makes it hard to add more than a few dozen nodes to a mesh. For small groups over wi

This sounds like a great set of constraints for an industrial controller, or a custom Cyberdeck-type portable. I’m confident any device following these guidelines would be DOA in the larger market, though. Even _if_ you could source things

I’m not sure which NanoPi you’re looking at; the Core Air is not quite 2x the price ($32 vs. $18) of the VoCore and only a bit wider/longer, and similarly thin. Also, as you mention it’s in an entirely different class w.r.t. performanc
