Who likes naming things? I need suggestions for an application name 🦜
The <Unnamed App> runs a Ktor server + Tor, and acts as a Reverse Proxy for other applications on the phone (P2P, no centralized servers). It just runs in the background constantly via Foreground Service (about 5% increase in battery consumption over 24h)
• Your app registers with <Unnamed App> on user's device and receives an Onion Address (
.onion
url)
• Your app would have a restful API (no internet needed) and <Unnamed App> would receive an http request
• <Unnamed App> then proxies that request to the app registered for that
.onion
address via
Intent
and
LocalSocket
• e.g. You could serve a website from your app
• e.g. Can do push notifications w/o the need for Google Play Services
• e.g. P2P File Sharing
• e.g. P2P chat
Current thoughts for <Unnamed App> name:
•
Prox
•
OR-RProx
â—¦ i.e. Onion Routing Reverse Proxy
•
ORRP
â—¦ i.e. Onion Routing Reverse Proxy
•
Nucleus
Any suggestions are welcome!
