Evan participates in the development of many #DWeb technologies, most notably he contributed to CoMapeo, an offline-only tool for Indigenous mapping and monitoring (https://awana.digital/comapeo)!

Good progress on the #dweb REST APIs and improvements to the #OpenAPI docs today, all with the help of #actix and #utoipa

BTW #SwaggerUI is really cool

A few days ago I knew nothing about these but now I have a working API that is documented and can be tested live while reading those docs.

Someone asked if I might support #GraphQL but I haven't looked into that. Convince me that I should!

Today’s fellow for the #DWebFellowFridays is @f!

He attended several DWeb Camps, and he has been active in digital freedom movements for many years, we consider him a veteran of the #DWeb community.

fauno works at @sutty and collaborates with @distributedpress, brewing countless projects and initiatives closely connected to local communities and knowledge preservation for minorities.

Attending #RightsCon2025 was incredible, so many wonderful encounters and happenings!

- A Local Network Workshop with #g0v
- A DWeb Community Roundtable
- Stop Surveillance Copaganda Sessions
- DWeb Community dinner

Especially if you couldn’t be there, learn more about it by reading @mai’s recap article: https://blog.archive.org/2025/03/26/dweb-and-digital-rights-a-report-back-from-rightscon-in-taipei/

Today I added #OpenAPI documentation to #dweb for building #RESTful #p2p web apps using your favourite web framework, or no framework at all.

All I have to do now is add more APIs!

But tbh, that's easy. The hardest part is actually the documentation.

So to make it more fun I'm adding the APIs need to enhance my #Fileman #Svelte demo.

So next is image preview which means adding /dweb-0/file-get

It’s Monday!

Make your week more interesting and fun with these upcoming events:

Thursday, 27/3, Z-Space, Vancouver: Workshop for artists: Why it’s time to move off big tech social media – https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/workshop-for-artists-why-its-time-to-move-off-big-tech-social-media-tickets-1268174286429

#DWebCamp

1/3

Baby steps building my first #REST API into #dweb using #actix and now wondering how to document it.

First impression is #utoipa (more active and possibly suitable than #apisto) so I'll try the former first.

Opinions and experiences with these and other options welcome!
