## Why?
|
||||
|
||||
* We believe in open, free, and uncensored network and communication.
|
||||
* No single point of failure: Site remains online so long as at least 1 peer is
|
||||
serving it.
|
||||
* No hosting costs: Sites are served by visitors.
|
||||
* Impossible to shut down: It's nowhere because it's everywhere.
|
||||
* Fast and works offline: You can access the site even if Internet is
|
||||
unavailable.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Features
|
||||
* Real-time updated sites
|
||||
* Namecoin .bit domains support
|
||||
* Easy to setup: unpack & run
|
||||
* Clone websites in one click
|
||||
* Password-less [BIP32](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0032.mediawiki)
|
||||
based authorization: Your account is protected by the same cryptography as your Bitcoin wallet
|
||||
* Built-in SQL server with P2P data synchronization: Allows easier site development and faster page load times
|
||||
* Anonymity: Full Tor network support with .onion hidden services instead of IPv4 addresses
|
||||
* TLS encrypted connections
|
||||
* Automatic uPnP port opening
|
||||
* Plugin for multiuser (openproxy) support
|
||||
* Works with any browser/OS
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## How does it work?
|
||||
|
||||
* After starting `zeronet.py` you will be able to visit zeronet sites using
|
||||
`http://127.0.0.1:43110/{zeronet_address}` (eg.
|
||||
`http://127.0.0.1:43110/1HeLLo4uzjaLetFx6NH3PMwFP3qbRbTf3D`).
|
||||
* When you visit a new zeronet site, it tries to find peers using the BitTorrent
|
||||
network so it can download the site files (html, css, js...) from them.
|
||||
* Each visited site is also served by you.
|
||||
* Every site contains a `content.json` file which holds all other files in a sha512 hash
|
||||
and a signature generated using the site's private key.
|
||||
* If the site owner (who has the private key for the site address) modifies the
|
||||
site, then he/she signs the new `content.json` and publishes it to the peers.
|
||||
Afterwards, the peers verify the `content.json` integrity (using the
|
||||
signature), they download the modified files and publish the new content to
|
||||
other peers.

|

## Current limitations
|
||||
|
||||
* ~~No torrent-like file splitting for big file support~~ (big file support added)
|
||||
* ~~No more anonymous than Bittorrent~~ (built-in full Tor support added)
|
||||
* File transactions are not compressed ~~or encrypted yet~~ (TLS encryption added)
|
||||
* No private sites
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## How can I create a ZeroNet site?
|
||||
|
||||
* Click on **⋮** > **"Create new, empty site"** menu item on the site [ZeroHello](http://127.0.0.1:43110/1HeLLo4uzjaLetFx6NH3PMwFP3qbRbTf3D).
|
||||
* You will be **redirected** to a completely new site that is only modifiable by you!
|
||||
* You can find and modify your site's content in **data/[yoursiteaddress]** directory
|
||||
* After the modifications open your site, drag the topright "0" button to left, then press **sign** and **publish** buttons on the bottom
