Metastream Extension Installation

With Google Chrome installed

Find and install extension on the Chrome Webstore. Remember the ID at the end of the URL (e.g. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ublock-origin/cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm).
Navigate to Chrome's extensions directory.
Copy the extension directory with the same name as the ID from step 1.
Paste extension into Metastream's extension directory.

Without Google Chrome installed

Find Chrome extension on the Chrome Webstore and copy the URL.

Application user networking using Dat protocol

This document outlines a structure to connect application users using Dat protocol. Users can identify themselves with a dat archive and publish session metadata to coordinate WebRTC connections.

Forewarning: I have no idea what I'm talking about.

Social peer dat archive

A user's identity resides in a dat archive which can be shared to create a connection.
