Tilde Friends

Tilde Friends is a program that aims to securely host pure JavaScript web applications.

Goals

1. Make it easy to run all sorts of servers and web applications.
2. Provide a security model that is easy to understand and protects your data.
3. Make creating and sharing web applications accessible to anyone from a web interface.

Building

Tilde Friends is routinely built on Linux, Windows, and OS X.

1. Get and build Google V8 (latest 3.30).
2. Get and build libuv (latest 1.0).
3. Run:

scons uv=path/to/libuv v8=path/to/v8

Running

Running the built tildefriends executable will start a web server. This is a good starting point: http://localhost:12345/tasks.

The first use to create an account and log in will be granted administrative privileges. Everything can be managed entirely from the web interface.

This is a work in progress.
