Abstract

Typical Web 2.0 applications are built on abstractions, allow- ing developers to rapidly and securely develop new features. For decent- ralised applications, these abstractions are often poor or non-existent. By proposing a set of abstract but generic building blocks for the devel- opment of peer-to-peer (decentralised), private online social networks, we aim to ease the development of user-facing applications. Additionally, an abstract programming system decouples the application from the data model, allowing to alter the front-end independently from the back-end. The proposed proof-of-concept protocol is based on existing cryptographic building blocks, and its viability is assessed in terms of performance.
