## Getting Started

Feel free to jump directly into the examples, however going through the following sections will help build context and background knowledge.

### Prerequisites

Make sure you have installed all of the following prerequisites on your development machine:

- Git - [Download & Install Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads). OSX and Linux machines typically have this already installed.
- Node.js - [Download & Install Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) and the npm package manager.

### Understanding how libp2p works

- [Circuit Relay](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-example-circuit-relay) - configuring Circuit Relay connections
- [Connection Encryption](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-example-connection-encryption) - how to encrypt connection between libp2p nodes
- [Delegated routing](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-example-delegated-routing) - how to offload network operations and queries onto more capable nodes
- [Discovery mechanisms](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-example-discovery-mechanisms) - how libp2p discovers other peers on the network
- [Custom protocols](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-example-custom-protocols) - how to create a custom protocol for your application
- [Transports](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-example-transports) - how to connect peers together via different transports
  - [WebRTC](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-example-webrtc-private-to-private) - a special transport for connecting browsers together

### Other examples

These are demo apps or examples that showcase specific modules or services:

- [Chat](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-example-chat) - a simple chat app
- [Browser Pub/Sub](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-example-browser-pubsub) - Using Pub/Sub between browsers

There is also [universal connectivity](https://github.com/libp2p/universal-connectivity/tree/main) demo that shows of how many different libp2p implementations can be connected together.
