# millimeter
> A browser experiment shipped with a built-in Gun DB relay server
I built it in a few hours on a lazy Saturday as a proof of concept, but it has a lot of potential. For example, if it became popular enough, and with NAT hole punching, perhaps by leveraging webtorrent, Millimeter users could be relay peers for a globally connected Gun swarm.
If you don't know what Gun is, see http://gun.eco. In short, it is an open source local-first decentralized graph database.
### Status
This is currently a work in progress.
- The current push is not working correctly. I am reworking how `BrowserWindow` and `BrowserView` renders content with a focus on electron's `ipc`. [This version](https://github.com/draeder/millimeter/tree/28c014702fb4ebaafe2d5c36e63d34826dbe6d46) should be the working version, but is woefully insecure, using the `gun/examples` folder from directly inside `node-modules`.
## Features
- Search or visit a URL from the address bar
# Install
1. Clone this repo
2. `> npm install`
3. `> npm start`
4. Browse to http://localhost:30210/gun in Millimeter and another browser and start typing. Millimeter is relaying the data between itself and the other browser!
## Much TODO
- Add a bittorrent-tracker server
- Back/Forward buttons
- History
- Bookmarks
- Tabs
- Settings
- Automatic upgrades
