Papyrs

This project is deprecated.

Papyrs was an open-source, privacy-first blogging platform which entirely ran on the Internet Computer. No servers, no cloud provider. Content and data lived fully on-chain, with the idea that authors owned their content.

Architecture

The application primarily worked offline and could therefore be used by anyone out of the box. It used Internet Identity as anonymous authentication provider. Each author got their own dedicated canisters on the Internet Computer: one for private data and drafts, one for published static content served directly to readers.
