# Waku for the Web
|

# Background
|
||||
|
||||
We are building Waku to be the communication layer for Web3:
|
||||
a network and suite of protocols to enable secure, censorship-resistant, privacy-preserving communications that can run on any device.
|
||||
We have built Waku to be a communication layer for Web3. Waku is a collection of protocols to chose from for your
|
||||
messaging needs. It enables secure, censorship-resistant, privacy-preserving, spam-protected communication for its user.
|
||||
It is designed to run on any device, from mobile to the cloud.
|
||||
|
||||
This involves research efforts in various domains:
|
||||
conversational security, protocol incentivization, zero-knowledge, anonymity to name a few.
|
||||
|
||||
To ensure we reach our goals, we knew that early dogfooding of Waku was necessary, even if research was still _in progress_ [[1]](#footnote1).
|
||||
Thus, we started to push for the adoption of Waku by projects other than the Status app starting 2021.

|
||||
Waku is the communication component of the Web3 trifecta,
|
||||
which originally was Ethereum (contracts), Swarm (storage) and Whisper (communication).
|
||||
Hence, it made sense to first target dApps which already uses one of the Web3 pillars: Ethereum.
|
||||
This involves research efforts in various domains: conversational security, protocol incentivization, zero-knowledge,
|
||||
anonymity to name a few.
|
||||
|
||||
As most dApps are web apps,
|
||||
we naturally started the development of [js-waku for the browser](https://vac.dev/presenting-js-waku).
|

To ensure we reach our goals, we knew that early dogfooding of Waku was necessary, even if research was still

||||
_in progress_ [[1]](#footnote1). Thus, as soon as Waku protocols and software were usable, we started to push for the
|
||||
adoption of Waku. This started back in 2021.
|
||||
|
||||
Once ready,
|
||||
we reached out to dApps to integrate Waku,
|
||||
added [prizes to hackathons](https://twitter.com/waku_org/status/1451400128791605254?s=20&t=Zhc0BEz6RVLkE_SeE6UyFA)
