@what @cwebber let me know if this helps: we're trying to do for p2p, decentralized apps what things like rails and django did for web 2.0 apps. that is: we want to give you a technology stack that lets you focus on the business logic of your app and have the output be both secure and decentralized.
I can highly recommend taking a look at the pear runtime. If you are familiar with nodejs javascript, all it takes is:
`npm install pear -g`
and then
`pear run pear://runtime`
to get started. Just follow instructions.
This runtime is part of the @dat_ecosystem and JS was choosen to exactly provide an easy way for anyone to get started with p2p.
an example cross platform app is https://keet.io
runtime docs are here https://docs.pears.com
have fun 
@serapath @what @cwebber @dat_ecosystem I am looking at the docs and it appears to be blockchain based, or at least uses something similar? is that correct? specifically looking at hypercore as it appears to be the central component https://docs.pears.com/building-blocks/hypercore

afaik there is no blockchain involved.
the holepunch projects (one dat ecosystem project) is open sourcing their runtime and the only relation to "blockchain" is, that an inactive co-founder is related to a blockchain project and funded the team to keep improving the p2p tech stack, but it doesnt use any blockchain parts at all.
Somebody could use the open source p2p runtime to build an app and maybe that cpuld use blockchains if the app devs decide so
@dthompson @what @cwebber @dat_ecosystem
...but so far i havent seen anyone doing that and the holepunch team also shared the goal is to keep the stack highly modular and decoupled from anything blockchainy
also, there is another dat implementation in rust without the holepunch team involved.
