Reach 🌐

Core P2P Networking Library for Rustalk

Reach is the foundational library that powers Rustalk's peer-to-peer communication capabilities. It provides secure, encrypted networking, identity management, and session handling.

Features

• 🔐 End-to-End Encryption: AES-GCM encryption with secure key exchange
• 🌐 P2P Networking: Direct peer-to-peer communication without central servers
• 🔑 Identity Management: Secure user identity and credential handling
• 📡 Session Management: Robust session handling and peer discovery
• ⚡ High Performance: Built with Rust and Tokio for async performance
• 🛡️ Security First: Industry-standard cryptographic primitives

Usage

Reach is designed to be used as a library by other Rustalk components:

use reach::{ReachEngine, UserCredentials};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let credentials = UserCredentials {
        email: "user@example.com".to_string(),
        password: "secure_password".to_string(),
    };
    
    let engine = ReachEngine::new(credentials).await?;
    engine.start_server(5000).await?;
    
    Ok(())
}
