\section{Peer-To-Peer Web}\label{peer-to-peer-web}

\subsection{Vision}\label{vision}

Developing a prototype for a p2p technology based instant messenger. In
particular, this messenger incoorporates the means for at least a
one-to-one text based communication. The project will be written in Java
and have a GUI built with JavaFX.

\subsection{Goals}\label{goals}

These are our immediate goals:

\begin{itemize}
\tightlist
\item
  Develop a concept for p2p message exchange
\item
  Implementation of aforementioned p2p message exchange concept
\item
  Implement a text based, one-to-one prototype of the system
\item
  Have a (basic) GUI
\end{itemize}

Furthermore, we see additional, optional goals, including but not
limiting to

\begin{itemize}
\tightlist
\item
  one-to-many communication
\item
  many-to-many communication
\item
  multimedia exchange (e.g.~file sharing)
\item
  \ldots{}
\end{itemize}

\subsection{Project Description \&
Goals}\label{project-description-goals}

German original project description:

\begin{itemize}
\tightlist
\item
  Ziel: Im Rahmen dieses Projektes soll eine prototypische Webanwendung
  mit dynamischen, benutzerdefinierten Inhalten auf der Basis einer
  freien p2p-Web Plattform entwickelt werden.
\item
  Hintergrund: Das Web ist in einer Server-Client Architektur
  organisiert. Es gibt allerdings auch Ansätze mit denen es möglich ist,
  Webinhalte ohne dedizierte Server zur Verfügung zu stellen.
\item
  Technische Stichworte: IPFS, dat, beaker browser
\end{itemize}
