Applesauce

I’ve been working on cleanup up a lot of the old crufty logic in noStrudel and as part of that process I’ve started breaking out a lot of the “event interpretation” layer into a new library applesauce

The goal with the library isn’t to build another “nostr SDK” but instead to only tackle the problem of how the UI layer of web apps should get data from events and update when new events are detected. Its still a work-in-progress but if your interested check out the docs (hopefully ill write some examples soon)

nsite

After SEC-02 I noticed Lez (npub1elt…cume) created a project built on top of blossom called nsite which was a simple static website CDN using nostr to store the object paths and blossom to store the objects themselves

Because I don’t know python I decided to write my own implementation of it in typescript nsite-ts and started hosting it at https://nsite.lol

florian (npub1klr…7gxc) also created super easy cli tool for uploading static sites to blossom servers called nsite-cli. If your a developer of a nostr web app I would encourage you to give it a try

I also opened my first NIP PR for static websites :D

Blossom

Thanks to quentin (npub138s…x624), fiatjaf (npub180c…h6w6), Kieran (npub1v0l…qj49), and Anthony Accioly (npub1a6w…0tyc) for opening PRs and contributing to the blossom spec. also thanks to everyone else who has shown interest in it. its awesome to watch it slowly grow

There are two more optional BUDs in the spec now

• BUD-06 Upload requirements
• BUD-08 Nostr File Metadata Tags

And a two breaking changes

• X-Reason for all error messages
• Authorization events may have multiple x tags with hashes PR

noStrudel

I’m continuing to work on noStrudel and add new features and iron out bugs. I can’t list everything here but the next release of the app is shaping up nicely. you can see the changes here

Hyper SOCKS5 proxy

Mostly a weekend project but I created a SOCKS5 proxy for hyperDHT and holesail called hyper-socks5-proxy that uses a bech32 encoded version of the holesail “connection strings” (public keys) to make them compatible with traditional URLs hyper-address

If you want to give it a try you can run it using npx hyper-socks5-proxy start to run it locally and have a SOCKS5 proxy that can connect to any hyperDHT or holesail node

Other experiments

Plans for Q4

• Release a working v1 of applesauce packages with documentation
• Release v0.42.0 of noStrudel and start next phase of refactoring the networking code
• Remove “app relays” from noStrudel and make it work entirely on the outbox model
• Try to make WebRTC relays work one last time (before I give up on it forever)
• Work with quentin and leo to release multiple types of paid blossom servers. and also build my own
• More noStrudel features? highlights? NIP-29? cashu wallet?
