README
# Lophus
> :construction: Still under development and not ready for use.
[](https://github.com/hasundue/lophus/actions/workflows/ci.yml)
[](https://codecov.io/github/hasundue/lophus)
Lophus is an experimental TypeScript library for development of [Nostr][nostr]
clients and relays, oriented to web standards and edge environments.
## Features
- **Modular** 🔌 - NIPs and high-level interfaces are implemented as optional
TypeScript modules, which makes your apps as small as possible.
- **Fast** ⚡ - Carefully designed to be performant. Fully asynchronous and
non-blocking. Use native code of a runtime via [Web APIs][web-apis].
- **Portable** 📦 - No runtime-specific code or external dependencies in the
core modules so that it can work on various platforms.
- **Type-safe** 🛡️ - Thoroughly typed with insanity.
- **Compatible** 🤝 - Shares the same data structure for events as
[nostr-tools][nostr-tools].
## Project Structure
### [@lophus/nips](https://github.com/hasundue/lophus/tree/main/nips)
Provides a set of modules that implement the Nostr protocol and its extensions.
Supposed to be the entry point for most developers who want to use Lophus.
### [@lophus/std](https://github.com/hasundue/lophus/tree/main/std)
Provides high-level interfaces and utilities, and functionalities that depends
on third-party libraries.
### [@lophus/core](https://github.com/hasundue/lophus/tree/main/core)
Contains the core modules that implement the basic architecture of Lophus. Used
for implementation of NIPs, or possibly your own Nostr-like protocols.
### [@lophus/lib](https://github.com/hasundue/lophus/tree/main/lib)
General-purpose modules that are developed for Lophus, but not directly related
to the Nostr protocol. You may use them in any TypeScript project.
### [@lophus/app](https://github.com/hasundue/lophus/tree/main/deploy/app)
A SSR-oriented Nostr client application that demonstrates how to use the
library.
### [@lophus/bench](https://github.com/hasundue/lophus/tree/main/bench)
Performance tests for Lophus and other Nostr libraries. Highly experimental.
