Journeys by goal

Each journey threads pages across tracks in the order that gets you to a goal. Follow one top to bottom.

Build a collaborative app

1. Quickstart — get a node and an app running.
2. Build your first app — state, methods, build, call.
3. Collections — pick the right CRDT types for your data.
4. Emit & handle events and call another context.
5. Access-controlled storage — lock down what shouldn’t be world-writable.
6. Example apps — study real ones; test yours.

Run a production fleet

1. Install & first run.
2. Production deployment — long-lived service, volumes, ports.
3. Networking & discovery — bootstrap, relays, NAT.
4. Security hardening and the auth service.
5. Observability — metrics and what divergence looks like.
6. Runbooks and troubleshooting for day-2.

Reimplement a node from scratch

1. Protocol overview — the one idea everything hangs on.
2. The core model, in order: Concepts → Identities → Operations → Projection.
3. The planes: Execution and Governance.
4. The paths: Networking → Write → Receive → Sync.
5. Subsystems: Blobs, TEE, xcall, Upgrades.
6. The on-disk Storage Schema and the Glossary.

Understand the data model deeply

1. Collections — the types and their semantics.
2. CRDTs — how they work — the actual merge algorithms.
3. Projection & the root hash — how state and convergence are computed.
4. Storage performance — what operations really cost.
5. Access-controlled storage — the enforcement model.
