What is iroh?

Iroh is a protocol for syncing & moving bytes. Bytes of any size, on any device. At its core, it's a peer-2-peer network built on a magic socket that establishes QUIC connections between peers. Peers request and provide blobs of opaque bytes that are incrementally verified by their BLAKE3 hash during transfer.

Features

  • Documents - Authors create and join documents: mutable key-value stores that multiple users read from, write to, and sync with, subscribing to live updates in real time.
  • Blobs - Iroh works with content-addressed blobs of opaque data, which are often the bytes of a file.
  • Networking - At the core of iroh is the ability to connect any two devices, no matter where they are.
