The Sneakerweb

A parallel web transported by physical media

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.

The sneakerweb CLI lets you browse and maintain a local collection of sneakerwebsites. You can export your collection to a .snk file, you can import .snk files into your collection, and you can create new websites.

You can download the sneakerweb CLI here .
