Release Notes

Alpha 0.0.0 -- Adventurer (10/24/2017)

This release marks the initial operational milestone of the major components of Holochain along with a whitepaper that describes the system.

The files below include a build of Holochain and our example app "Clutter" - a decentralized Twitter clone on Holochain.

We call this the "Adventurer" release because it's an early release appropriate for those with an open adventursome spirit, to play with. Many things will change in upcoming releases, and we recognize that you will likely to encounter difficulties on the way. We invite you to contact us on our gitter channel if you need help.

Here are some things NOT included in this release:

  • Security Audits: Do not expect this code to be secure in any significant way.
  • Gossip Scaling: Our proof-of-concept gossip protocol has significant performance problems and is missing a number of important features that will allow it to handle unstable networks and transient nodes.
  • DHT Sharding: DHT sharding is not yet in place so nodes gossip with all other nodes. This imposes obvious scaling problems. This will be addressed in the next alpha release.

Please see our Waffle for a more detailed list of missing features and known problems slated for the next releases.
