Panthalassa

A Javascript + Flow implementation of panthalassa

Api

Panthalassa is under heavy development. Things will change fast.

Pantalassa follows a modular approache to provide more flexibilty since it will be used on our mobile & desktop client. The context in which panthalassa run's on mobile and on desktop is pretty different (on mobile it's the browser engine and on desktop it's node js), so you might see us abstracting some thing's like the random bytes function because the context is different (crypto.randomBytes() can't be used in the browser)

Modules:

• Database contain database related functionality
• Ethereum contain all ethereum releated code
• Profile profile related functionality
• SecureStorage contains a node js secure storage
• Specification contain all the specifications. E.g. for the secure storage.

FAQ

I heard this is supposed to be the backend of The Pangea Jurisdiction, can you please explain?

Ok, so your backend is not a common backend where you make a few http request, get some data back and done. Instead, our backend is a decentraliced meshnetwork. Meaning each device in the network is a "server" (not really a server but a node). Therefor it needs to run on each device (like smartphones and laptops). The owner of the device will be able to communicate with other people in the network since the device becomes a node in the network.

Specification

Secure Storage

The secure storage is used to save critical information such as private keys in a save environment.
