" summary

Covers integrating IPFS, Hypercore Protocol, and BitTorrent into a desktop web browser (Agregore, built on Electron) so web apps can use P2P backends for online, local/mesh, and offline operation. Compares strengths and weaknesses of those protocols, shows how they are wired into every URL-handling place in the browser, and includes a live developer demo (live coding) of the Agregore browser.
