Experimental implementation of the [minimal viable data sync protocol specification](https://specs.vac.dev/mvds.html).

## Usage

### Prerequisites

Ensure you have `protoc` (Protobuf) and Golang installed. Then run `make`.

### Simulation

In order to run a very naive simulation, use the simulation command. The simulation is configurable using various CLI flags.

```
Usage of main.go:
  -communicating int
    	amount of nodes sending messages (default 2)
  -interactive int
    	amount of nodes to use INTERACTIVE mode, the rest will be BATCH (default 3)
  -interval int
    	seconds between messages (default 5)
  -nodes int
    	amount of nodes (default 3)
  -offline int
    	percentage of time a node is offline (default 90)
  -sharing int
    	amount of nodes each node shares with (default 2)
```
