crypta

Crypta

A decentralized social network. Built with IPFS, Quasar and Vue.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you up and running on your local machine. Crypta connects to the IPFS network, but it doesn't require a separate IPFS client.

Prerequisites

First you need to install Go and Node.js.

Building and Running

The first command will give a lot of 'unrecognized import path' warnings, but they can just be ignored as the missing dependencies will be fetched later.

go get -u -d github.com/jakobvarmose/crypta
cd $(go env GOPATH)/src/github.com/jakobvarmose/crypta
make
./crypta

Development

To make development easy you can also run the GUI and API separately.

Run the API in one terminal (note the --dev flag):

cd $(go env GOPATH)/src/github.com/jakobvarmose/crypta
go build && ./crypta --dev

...and the GUI in another:

cd $(go env GOPATH)/src/github.com/jakobvarmose/crypta/web
npm run dev
