While developing [IPFS, the InterPlanetary FileSystem](https://ipfs.io/), we came to learn about several challenges imposed by having to run a distributed file system on top of heterogeneous devices, with different network setups and capabilities. During this process, we had to revisit the whole network stack and elaborate solutions to overcome the obstacles imposed by design decisions of the several layers and protocols, without breaking compatibility or recreating technologies.
In order to build this library, we focused on tackling problems independently, creating less complex solutions with powerful abstractions that, when composed, can offer an environment for a peer-to-peer application to work sucessfuly.
