Hyperware

Hyperware is a decentralised operating system and peer-to-peer app framework made of a Rust kernel, Wasm processes and an on-chain namespace, with networking, identity, data persistence and global state built into the runtime. Processes written by developers start on personal nodes, pass messages through the kernel, and files are encrypted and backed up to several remote locations automatically; processes are decoupled by message passing, so one crashing app does not take the node down.

Identity is registered through the Hypermap naming system, where any Ethereum NFT can be linked to generate a unique identity, and data sovereignty stays with the node owner. Its flagship Hypergrid connects AI agents to arbitrary data feeds instead of web-search style retrieval, while JavaScript and Python process frameworks let apps be published to the network for other nodes to install, and nodes can be run by third-party hosting services.
