We have QUIC at home: How iroh connects devices peer-to-peer

by Philipp Pohl-Krüger

The internet connects devices globally, except if both of them are behind firewalls and NAT. Because of that data takes a detour through the cloud. However, we can do better: We’ll explore how iroh uses QUIC and hole-punching to connect devices directly even in those cases.

Lightning Talks

A selection of five-minute-long impromptu or prepared lightning talks related to the meetup topics.
