Welcome to the Pubky Knowledge Base
This is a knowledge base for the Pubky platform, which includes Pubky Core, PKARR and Pubky App. These documents are a work in progress, much like Pubky’s protocols and applications!
What is Pubky?
Pubky attempts to unlock the web by realizing our vision for a key-based, self-regulating web that puts users in control.
So far, Pubky does this by combining practical decentralized routing & identity (PKARR), with simple interoperable hosting (Homeservers) that allow for censorship resistance and a credible exit, as well as a publishing application, Pubky App, that facilitates the creation of a Semantic Social Graph, which can be used for filtering, discovery, matching and coordination.
