I am looking at agregore browser.

Question: what would be a quick onramp to share a directory of files or browse a remote directory of files using a decentralized protocol? Which protocol might be simplest to set up and configure?

My idea is to avoid having to study another programming language or DSL to use a new tool.

I would suggest hyper:// protocol

You can use these simple APIs in both Agregore and PeerSky to publish the content to DWeb.

In PeerSky you can browse your local files with file:// protocol and also you'll get an option to publish those directories to P2P.

@retro @craigoverend @cypherpunk @agregore Yeah sadly there's no clean no-code option yet. I'm working on adding folder uploads to the `file viewer` app. https://github.com/AgregoreWeb/website/blob/main/apps/fileviewer.html First I added some stuff to make it easier to write text files. Sadly it's all in my spare time between work and existing in meatspace. 😅

@retro @craigoverend @cypherpunk @agregore @peersky @akhileshthite Oh! If you're comfy setting up servers, we mad this a while ago: https://distributed.press/

@retro @craigoverend @cypherpunk Hey! I added a button to upload files to the file viewer. You can make a new p2p site and upload whatever you want into it and share the link with another agregore instance. hyper://agregore.mauve.moe/apps/create.html

I installed Release 2.24.0 debian package from GitHub. It opens a blank window on Debian Bookworm. The window is just a blank, white canvas. What should I check?

@retro Dang! I think I've heard this before but I lack a debian box. Does the AppImage or running from source work? or setting NODE_ENVdebug when running it from the cli should show more debug info. https://github.com/AgregoreWeb/agregore-browser/blob/master/package.json#L10
