Public-private key based identity (not bound to any blockchain or hosting domain)
Federated (accounts on different nodes can communicate)
Lightweight (runs on a raspberry pi zero v1.3)
No server-side replication (direct communication between app and contact's node)
Low latency (use of websockets for push events to avoid polling)
Responsive (renders well in browsers for phone, tablet and pc)
Unlimited accounts per node (host for your whole family)

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

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. Containers for arm64 and amd64 are available here.

Instruction for installing without a container on a Raspberry Pi Zero are here.

Example with Portainer and Nginx Proxy Manager

From Portainer:

In the container view, click add container:
- In the 'Image' field enter 'balzack/databag:latest'
- Click 'publish a new network port', and select port 7000 for both host and container
- Under 'Advanced container settings', select 'Env', and click 'Add Environment Variable'
  - Enter 'Name' as 'ADMIN' and your admin password [password]
- Click 'Deploy the Container'

From Nginx Proxy Manager:

Add a host and specify:
- Hostname [hostname.domain]
- Portainer IP address [address]
- Port '7000'
- Request new SSL certificate

From Your Browser:

Enter your server address in the address bar [hostname.domain]
- Click the cog icon in the top right
- Enter your admin password: [password]
- Click the cog icon in the dashboard
  - Enter Federated Host as [hostname.domain]
  - Click 'Save'
- Click the user icon to generate a new account link
  - Follow the link to create an account
