Lophus

Warning
Still under development and not ready for use.

Yet another TypeScript library for Nostr. It showcases how seamlessly the Web Streams API integrates with the protocol.

Features

• Declarative 🌊 - Lets you focus on the data flow rather than underlying logic.
• Portable 📦 - The client core (client.ts) has no dependencies on Deno or Node.js APIs.
• Lightweight 🪶 - The minified version of client core (client.min.js) is about 4.5 KB.
• Modular 🔌 - High-level interfaces and NIPs are implemented as optional modules, which enables you to keep an app as small as possible.
• Compatible 🤝 - Shares the same data structure for events as nostr-tools.

Documentation

• API Reference (WIP)
• Lophus by Examples

Supported NIPs

• NIP-01: Basic protocol

Acknowledgments

Development of Lophus is inspired by the following projects:

• nostr-tools - Reference implementation of the protocol in TypeScript
• nostring - A Nostr relay library written in Deno
• Hono - A fast, lightweight, and multi-platform Web framework for edges
