Test Nethermind.Libp2p .NET libp2p

The project aims to implement libp2p to unlock building .NET peer-to-peer applications using a battle-tested specification of network communication of the new age.

As an application developer, you may consider reading quick start. As a stack implementer, you may be interested in more advanced tutorials.

Contributions are welcome, kindly check the issues tab, everything there if not assigned to a person can be taken into work. More details in CONTRIBUTING.md.

Building the solution

The solution depends on external repositories.

git clone https://github.com/NethermindEth/dotnet-libp2p.git --recursive
cd ./src/libp2p/
dotnet build
dotnet test

Roadmap

🚧 The library is not stable and under heavy development. Consider the beta milestone as a reflection of readiness for production 🚧

The target is to provide a performant well-tested implementation of a wide range of protocols that works on multiple platforms, with high throughput and low memory profile.
