Hmm, I use cryptocurrency on a daily basis, and my usage does not fall in any of those categories you listed. It sounds like (correct me if I'm wrong), the "nonsense" that you see consists of two things: (1) a lack of integra

Thank you, that's an answer that I can understand. It's always great to see greater browser engine diversity. (Whatever happened to Servo?)

After evaluating the various options, we seem to be settling on the idea that the protocol will specify that for duplicate keys, the handling must be the same as in browsers: meaning, the last key is the one that's used.

Yes, I am confident that we have avoided that specific pitfall because as I mentioned we do not ever re-serialize the JSON. However, thinking on it more, there is one thing Groxx mentioned that has given me pause, and that is "Numbers

We're aware of these issues with JSON, but they do not affect the integrity of Shelter Protocol, and by using JSON we get a lot of advantages in terms of speed and developer usability (support for tools like `jq`, schema-less serializa

SPMessage serializations are never regenerated after they leave the client, so it's not an issue as far as I'm aware. JSON is supported universally in all languages and all platforms, and natively in the browser. Is there a specif

As others have said, there are unfortunately not that many good alternatives for serializing data in web browsers (that are both performant and don't require bulking your app with the serialization implementation). We've done our

Shelter Protocol is an append-only log that is stored in a key-value database. I recommend watching the talk if you haven't already, it should answer your questions. Regarding storing Vue (or any other frontend framework), the answer i

You're right the documentation is incomplete, we are actively working on the protocol and for any sections that we feel are too much "up in the air" as far as details go, we have purposefully left blank so as to not mislead i
