In plain words

P2PCF is a WebRTC signalling solution that runs on Cloudflare Workers. It enables peer-to-peer connections by handling the initial coordination between peers without requiring a dedicated server. The tool is designed for developers who need to establish direct communication channels between browsers or applications but want to minimize infrastructure costs and setup complexity. It leverages Cloudflare's existing edge network to process signalling messages efficiently.

    Tt – P2P terminal sharing over WebRTCJan 2026 · ▲13

    Made this to use my laptop terminal session on mobile without data going through a server. tt start -p mypassword → get a URL (qrcode) → open in browser → enter password → connected. Direct webrtc datachannel between your machine and browser. Signaling server is a cloudflare worker, exchanges ~2KB of sdp/ice metadata then gets out of the way. Password never transmitted - argon2id derives 256-bit key locally on both ends. All terminal i/o gets nacl secretbox encryption before hitting the datachannel. double encrypted with dtls underneath but I wanted the relay to see nothing useful…

  • Hello, HN - I wanted to share this puzzle game I made during my vacation. I'm rather fond of the pipes puzzle where your goal is to restore a scrambled network of connections by rotating tiles. It's usually played on a grid of squares and this all started when I decided to make a programmatic solver for that kind of puzzle. Then I realized that with some minor changes the solver could generate new puzzle instances. I thought about what kind of puzzle to make and someone suggested a hexagonal grid. Adapting the generator wasn't too hard but then I had to create a way to play this variant. So…
