How to Help WarpNet

WarpNet is a free, open, and decentralized social protocol. There is no central owner — just people building together. If you want to help, there are many ways to contribute:

1. Test the Software

Try running a node on your platform (Linux, macOS, Windows)
Use the UI, break things, and report issues
Experiment with multi-node setups in your LAN or VPN

Bug reports are always appreciated: → GitHub Issues

2. Improve the Code

Read the source code and open PRs
Fix bugs, add missing error handling
Optimize critical paths (e.g., message storage, discovery)
Fix the frontend (PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE)

Look at good first issues if you’re new.

3. Build Tools and Interfaces

Write a desktop client or cross-platform GUI
Make a mobile aliases (iOS and Android)
Create visualizations or dashboards for peers/network metrics (like Graphana)

WarpNet is modular. Anything that speaks the protocol can join the network.

4. Research and Audit

Review the cryptographic primitives (Noise, PSK, local key derivation)
Propose improvements to moderation, discovery, or security models
Help design trust-minimizing coordination methods

5. Write and Document

Translate the documentation into your language
Write tutorials or explainers (e.g., “How WarpNet stores tweets locally”)
Improve error messages or CLI help output

6. Run Infrastructure

Host a publicly reachable bootstrap node (PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE)
Help with continuous integration or builds

7. Spread the Word

Share WarpNet with like-minded developers
Star the repository to increase its visibility

If you’re doing any of the above, you’re already helping. WarpNet is not a startup. There is no monetization. It’s a protocol for people who want to own their tools.
