Streamr

streamr-network

Build Status npm release GitHub stars Discord Chat

An extendible implementation of the server-side Streamr Protocol logic written in TypeScript. The package mostly acts as a library for other packages wishing to implement a broker node, but additionally provides a full tracker executable, and a stripped-down network node executable.

The primary executable for running a broker node in the Streamr Network resides in the streamr-broker package. Although streamr-network contains a fully-operational minimal network node implementation, we recommend running the node executable found in streamr-broker as it includes useful client-facing features for interacting with the Streamr Network.

The wiki outlines the technical and architectural decisions of the project. It provides thorough explanations of some the more involved features. A glossary is also included.
