I came across numerous links leading to various GitHub repositories containing text.
However, I didn't find any source code at all.
@zurchpet the first link in the article (within the first sentence, actually) leads to the source code for DeCent Messenger (https://github.com/futurehood/DeCent-Messenger).
The second and final link leads to the main project overview repository (https://github.com/futurehood/DeCent), from there you can find the DeCent-Core repo (not open-sourced yet) as well as another link to the DeCent Messenger repo and several others that contain code samples.
Please keep in mind that there is a lot to the project, and I'm doing everything myself. If you have anything specific you're looking for, I'd be happy to point the way!
Thank you for providing the links and your clarification.
I was looking for the cores code.
I am interested in how this all works.
I will read more in to it.
Sounds good, thanks for your patience, I know it's not as dense as more complicated protocol documentation, but there is a lot there to read nonetheless, I appreciate you!
I'm hoping to iterate on the explanation a few more times and make it as concise as possible. I'm planning on doing a video soon too.
I will be open sourcing DeCent-Core shortly, probably sometime next week, after some cleanup and a bit of refactoring from the prototype codebase. I'll make another post here when that happens.
