Databag is a self-hosting network for the DWeb community, implementing the indicom messaging service. Notable features include:
- Public-private key based identity and not bound to any blockchain or hosting domain.
- Direct communication between app and contact's node with no server-side replication.
- Data revision trees for efficient syncrhonization.
- Websockets for delivering synchronization events.
- Each node can host any number of accounts.
- Server written in Go and browser app written with Reactjs.

You can test out the project [here](https://databag.coredb.org/#/create), but don't post anything important as this server is regularly wiped. I would greatly appreciate feedback on the UI/UX, bugs or features.

### Installation

To use databag, you will need a DNS name pointing to your node with a certificate. You can deloy a node manually, but you will have a much easier time using a container service. For my self-hosting setup, I use Portainer with Nginx Proxy Manager running on an Intel Nuc. As a reslt the docker image I have built is for [amd64](https://hub.docker.com/u/balzack)
