What is MinneMesh?

MinneMesh is a group of computer scientists, programmers, and experimenters working on mesh network technology. We believe that mesh networks provide many advantages, including:

• Resilient communication infrastructure
• Disaster preparedness and local resilience
• Community-owned infrastructure/services
• Decentralized service models
• Network neutrality
• Privacy by design

What is our vision?

We believe that decentralized technology will advance our communication infrastructure by an order of magnitude.

We hope to make mesh technology part of everyday life. Social networks, video streaming, education, science, and more all stand to gain from this technology.

Services

We are currently hosting these services:

• CJDNS
• IPFS
• Matrix Chat

Please contact us if you would like to peer or experiment with our services.
