Good progress on the #dweb REST APIs and improvements to the #OpenAPI docs today, all with the help of #actix and #utoipa

BTW #SwaggerUI is really cool

A few days ago I knew nothing about these but now I have a working API that is documented and can be tested live while reading those docs.

Someone asked if I might support #GraphQL but I haven't looked into that. Convince me that I should!

Today’s fellow for the is @f!

He attended several DWeb Camps, and he has been active in digital freedom movements for many years, we consider him a veteran of the community.

🧵 2/3

@tokyo_0 #Autonomi aim to do just that. The network is live but still being worked on to get uploads and downloads reliable.

For my part I'm building on this to make it easy to publish and view websites, RESTful dapps and other things with my #dweb project. All working on local test networks so we're all waiting for the public network to work at scale.

So far, I have been delving into the #Web3 and #crypto debate only superficially, as the very few notions I got led me to abhor any kind of technology related to the #blockchain.

Since I started my new job at @dweb, though, I am finding myself revisiting my position by deepening my knowledge on the topic. I am mostly drawing the same conclusions—crypto is terrible—yet I am glad I am learning more also on what I am very critical about.

I am particularly thankful to @mai for writing this article, which I believe is a great starting point to develop an informed opinion.

Above all, as mai points out, nothing is all-bad, and there are for sure ideas and practices that can be learned (as cautionary tales in the worst case scenarios) even from problematic technologies, communities, and/or founders.

Hey decentralization lovers from all over the planet!

🗓️ Starting today, every Monday we’ll be publishing a thread sharing the events of the week.

If we are missing anything, please do get in touch. We are also working on a calendar gathering all events in one place! Stay tuned 👀

🧵 1/2 (Se the events coming up this week in the next post)

I published my first two dweb apps for #Autonomi today. Just to github for now but I'll be publishing dweb properly in a few days, maybe Sunday, then I'll write about it all.

Simple, but still useful demos, not least of how easily an very low skill web dev like myself can build #p2p stuff in Svelte.

That's two apps in a week, while building the API they need into #dweb - in fact that was almost all the work.
