Federalist and Bob – uncensorable website with webtorrent and Handshake
Bob Extension just added ability to resolve Handshake domain with webtorrent. Any Handshake TLDs can update its TXT record with a magnet link pointing to a folder that contains a index.html page - Bob Extension will download and show the content using webtorrent when users go to the TLDs (e.g. federalistpapers/) https://github.com/kyokan/bob-extension/pull/18
In plain words
Bob Extension is a browser tool that enables decentralized website hosting using Handshake domains and WebTorrent technology. Users can store websites on the distributed network by adding magnet links to their domain's TXT records, which the extension then downloads and displays when visitors access the site. It is designed for developers and website owners seeking censorship-resistant alternatives to traditional hosting infrastructure.
