Beaker
An experimental peer-to-peer Web browser that adds APIs for building hostless applications while maintaining Web compatibility.
What is Beaker?
Beaker Browser was an experimental peer-to-peer Web browser designed to explore new possibilities for decentralized web applications. It extended traditional browser capabilities with specialized APIs for creating and interacting with hostless, peer-to-peer content while maintaining compatibility with the existing Web.
Developers and researchers interested in experimenting with decentralized web technologies, peer-to-peer protocols, and building applications that do not rely on centralized servers.
It uniquely combined peer-to-peer browsing with backward compatibility to the standard Web, offering a practical platform for exploring hostless applications through integrated APIs like the Dat protocol.
