Transports, upgrades, multiplexing and node handling of libp2p.
The main concepts of libp2p-core are:
- The Transporttrait defines how to reach a remote node or listen for incoming remote connections. See thetransportmodule.
- The StreamMuxertrait is implemented on structs that hold a connection to a remote and can subdivide this connection into multiple substreams. See themuxingmodule.
- The UpgradeInfo,InboundUpgradeandOutboundUpgradetraits define how to upgrade each individual substream to use a protocol. See theupgrademodule.
