- i001962 5y agoThat is a bold claim and no supporting evidence. This forum can be so valuable and yet so maddening. Please do share your experiences that support your opinion. Gun.js can seem ‘magical’ but then again the 100 lines of code (iirc it’s less) are there for all to see. I’ve found the time invested to learn about gun (the sync protocol) and RAD (storage abstraction layer) quite worth it. The addition of SEA (security encryption authorization) wrapping around gun enables a lot of implementation options which some find frustrating as they’d rather not have to think about topology before building ‘an app’. Could that be a reason for your comment? Would love to hear why you think it’s snake oil.
- sagichmal 5y agoBecause when the author writes or speaks about the project, they consistently demonstrate a fundamental lack of understanding of the domain. There is a reason that GunDB is never mentioned in literature or papers.
