The Hypermedia Protocol relies on several RPC interfaces that may be used interchangeably depending on your use case.

• Communication between unknown peers, connected with libp2p

• Sharing of index information between trusted peers connected with libp2p

• Communication between desktop app front-end and the node

• Communication between web app front-end and the hosted node

• Connection to Seed services like hosting, inbox, and payments

Important: the Hypermedia RPC protocols are highly unstable right now. Eventually we will stabilize these under a unified schema system. For now we are using a messy mix of gRPC and JSON REST APIs.

These RPCs are not yet documented, as they are very prone to change.
