The Willow family of protocols (willowprotocol.org) has taken a long, indirect path of development. In this talk Sammy Gwilym and Aljoscha Meyer of worm-blossom.org discuss this unusual approach of gradually layering discovery after discovery and how it has benefitted the project.

The sneakerweb is a parallel web where data is transported by physical media.

In this workshop, participants will install the sneakerweb tool on their own machines, create a domain, publish their own website to it, and swap sites with each other.

The sneakerweb is powered by Willow, the Meadowcap capability system, and Willow's Drop Format (https://willowprotocol.org).
