Decentralized communication that scales. +[Waku](https://waku.org/) is a family of robust and censorship-resistant communication protocols enabling privacy-focused messaging for Web3 applications. Private. Secure. Runs anywhere. -### What is Waku? - -Waku is a suite of privacy-preserving, peer-to-peer messaging protocols. - -Waku removes centralized third parties from messaging, enabling private, secure, censorship-free communication with no single point of failure. - -Waku provides privacy-preserving capabilities, such as sender anonymity,metadata protection and unlinkability to personally identifiable information. - -Waku is designed for generalized messaging, enabling human-to-human, machine-to-machine or hybrid communication. - -Waku runs everywhere: desktop, server, including resource-restricted devices, such as mobile devices and browsers. -How does it work? - -The first version of Waku had its origins in the Whisper protocol, with optimizations for scalability and usability. Waku v2 is a complete rewrite. Its relay protocol implements pub/sub over libp2p, and also introduces additional capabilities: - -1. Retrieving historical messages for mostly-offline devices. -2. Adaptive nodes, allowing for heterogeneous nodes to contribute. -3. Bandwidth preservation for light nodes. - -This makes it ideal for running a p2p protocol on mobile, or in other similarly resource-restricted environments. - - - -Read the [Waku docs](https://docs.wakuconnect.dev/) +Read the [Waku docs](https://docs.waku.org/)
