This is the official website for FAIR: http://fair.pm/ http://fair.pm/ . It currently redirects to https://github.com/fairpm https://github.com/fairpm . Here's a description:
> The FAIR Package Manager is a decentralized alternative to the central WordPress.org plugin and theme ecosystem, designed to return control to WordPress hosts and developers. It operates as a drop-in WordPress plugin, seamlessly replacing existing centralized services with a federated, open-source infrastructure.
> There are two core pillars of the FAIR system:
> - API Replacement: It replaces communication with WordPress.org APIs (such as update checks and event feeds) using local or FAIR-governed alternatives. Some features—like browser version checks—are handled entirely within the plugin using embedded logic (e.g., browserslist).
> - Decentralized Package Management: FAIR introduces a new package distribution model for themes and plugins. It supports opt-in packages that use the FAIR protocol and enables hosts to configure their own mirrors for plugin/theme data using AspirePress or their own domains. While stable plugins currently use mirrors of WordPress.org, future versions will fully support FAIR-native packages.
