Crate libp2p

libp2p is a modular peer-to-peer networking framework.

To learn more about the general libp2p multi-language framework visit libp2p.io.

To get started with this libp2p implementation in Rust, please take a look at the tutorials. Further examples can be found in the examples directory.
