Pear is a peer-to-peer (P2P) development and deployment platform that enables the creation of decentralized, high-scale applications. Rather than relying on cloud infrastructure, data in Pear applications resides locally on user devices, and peers connect directly through a key on a global distributed hash table. Pear's infrastructure is built on several key components:
: A native P2P-capable platform that includes a runtime binary, an API, and an application shell to provide the framework for developing production P2P applications. pear browser
: Direct peer connectivity is achieved using a hole-punching algorithm that can bypass firewalls and NAT restrictions without needing a central server. Pear is a peer-to-peer (P2P) development and deployment
Pear provides a comprehensive toolset for decentralized application lifecycles: : Direct peer connectivity is achieved using a
: Unlike blockchain, which uses a global federated state, Pear ensures data remains local to the user, facilitating direct data sharing between peers. Key Features for Developers
