A parallel web transported by physical media

A drawing showing a cycle of authoring HTML, exchanging physical media, and browsing websites

The sneakerweb is a peer-to-peer protocol for web publishing without permission: there are no DNS servers, domain registrars, or web hosts.

Instead, websites are stored directly on user devices, and transferred between them through the ultimate fallback infrastructure: physical storage media.

Your collected sites can be viewed offline, in the same web browser you normally use, and then shared with others via .snk files.

Protocol specification

The command-line interface is just one client for the fully specified sneakerweb protocol. This protocol builds upon Willow, which is used to prevent the forgery of websites, merge updated data, and create efficient and compact .snk files.
