| # Secure Scuttlebutt from Scratch | ||||
| [Back to index](#index) | ||||
|  | ||||
| This aims to be the missing reference for those who wish to create a Secure | ||||
| Scuttlebutt client from scratch. | ||||
|  | ||||
| ## Discovery | ||||
| A good way to get started is to participate in local network discovery with a known working | ||||
| client on the same network.  The | ||||
| [Scuttlebutt Programming Guide](https://ssbc.github.io/scuttlebutt-protocol-guide/#local-network) | ||||
| is a good start, here, with a few things to note: | ||||
|  | ||||
| 1. Some clients advertise multiple addresses separated by semicolons (`;`). | ||||
| 2. Some clients advertise alternative protocols than `shs` and use hostnames instead of | ||||
| IPv4 addresses. | ||||
|  | ||||
| So be prepared to accept variations. | ||||
|  | ||||
| ## Secret Handshake, Box Stream, and RPC Protocol | ||||
| Now that two clients are aware of eachother, they need to complete a secret handshake. | ||||
| The [programming guide](https://ssbc.github.io/scuttlebutt-protocol-guide/#handshake) | ||||
| is once again a good reference. | ||||
|  | ||||
| The box stream and RPC protocol can both be implemented from the | ||||
| [same documentation](https://ssbc.github.io/scuttlebutt-protocol-guide/#box-stream) | ||||
| without surprises. | ||||
|  | ||||
| ## Synchronizing Data | ||||
| So now you're discovering other clients on the local network, connecting, performing | ||||
| a secret handshake, and making remote procedure calls over box streams.  The next step | ||||
| is to start synchronizing feeds over the network.  The goal, after all, is to author | ||||
| messages in your local append-only log and have them show up in distant clients, or | ||||
| vice versa. | ||||
