// TODO
// 1. Convery network messages to flatbuffers so we don't need to parse JSON in Go.
// Use binary WS messages. Generate for Go and JS and use that everywhere. We can
// also use this for WebRTC messages.
// 2. Keep a list of all nodes that bootstrapped in the last N minutes.
// 3. When a node bootstraps, send it a random list of the nodes we know about.
// 4. Do the signalling to connect those nodes.
// 5. Each node will know about N other nodes. To find get the data for a feed,
// a node will need to find another node that has that data. To do that we'll need to
// implement a search message that is sent to all currently connected nodes, and they
// forward to all their nodes, passing back the address of the node that has the data.
// Once we find it, we'll do the signalling to connect to it via Web RTC via our existing connected nodes.
// -----
// Feeds. People can curate feeds which can be any combination of hashtags, serch terms and users.
// Invite-only communities. Just block everyone else even if they post to it.
// Limit to friends and friends of friends

// MVP
// You connect to the person you want to get the post from to get the post
// they give you the post
// If they're offline, you can't get their updates.
// This is very stupid, but it's simplest thing.
// The bootstrap server connects you to them directly via WebRTC
// This will make the thing actually function as a little toy for people to play with.
// This will let us test whether background tabs respond to webrtc requests.

// THEN
// Need to have identity sorted out
// When you read someone's posts, you also cache them locally
// cache priority goes mutuals->people you follow->people who you folllow, follow, so you're always
// caching your mutual's posts
// Posts are samll, so caching per-post will work fine.
// Then the process is for the bootstrap server to remember all nodes and what they're caching
// This will allow distributed content delivery but put a memory and bendwidth strain on the
// bootstrap sever. Look into Web Transport for the raspberry pi overhead. Could buy a few more RPIs
// and make a little cluster
// Domain name so we can get a certificate and serve HTTPS / HTTP3

// Think about compiling Typescript on initial access and caching the JS in a service worker
// so you don't need a build system to change things.
// Think about self-hosting the client so the system can be completely self-hosted
