BitTorrent/Codex Integration

In this repository your will find a complete documentation of our BitTorrent/Codex investigation.

Objectives

I was trying to answer the following questions:

1. How BitTorrent/Codex integration may look like?
2. What are existing (open source) BitTorrent clients?
3. What are the challenges ahead and how big the effort would be?

Answering those three questions should give us answer to the big ultimate question: Is it all worth it?

Getting there in short time is not easy, especially without recent hands-on experience with the BitTorrent protocol. Thus in this quest, the following actions are being taken:

1. Identity Learn BitTorrent , to get some intuition about the protocol. This is mostly to answer the question number (1) above.
2. Comparison of BitTorrent clients , trying to focus on those that are open sourced. We want to learn about their market share, how do they look and feel, and how easy would it be to work with their codebase.
3. Chose one of the client, and try to cat it through and learn how easy is to do what we think we want to do. What are the obstacles, and unexpected difficulties? This is the major part of our investigation.

Obsidian

This repository is also a complete Obsidian vault. You can open it on your computer in the Obsidian App and have a complete snapshot of everything I have captured when working on the subject. Comparing to bloated Notion, which is a great tool for procrastination rather than a tool for capturing knowledge, Obsidian let's you capture the knowledge quickly and with excellent overview of how different topic connect to each other. And in the end - all are just Markdown files.

The vault includes the .obsidian folder, but does not include publishing settings, and workspace configuration as those are personal and change every time you open the vault. If you want to have the full control over your Obsidian look and full, your own Hot-Keys, Installed plugins, etc, your can delete .obsidian or replace it with your own.

Published site

For the duration of the project, I am also publishing the documentation at https://publish.obsidian.md/bittorrent. Published site allows you to access all the docs, but it is highly recommended to use Obsidian App for a complete experience. Currently, for instance, we need to duplicate note properties in a table, in order for those to be visible at the published site.

The site will be removed after conclusion has been reached.
