☁️ Edge Cloud

How does this work?

1. Your browser makes a key. When you register, your phone or laptop generates a cryptographic keypair and keeps the secret half locally. Your email is only used to check you're on the Edge Esmeralda guest list — it's never shared with the network.
2. You sign and submit a job. Your code (a little JavaScript, or a WebAssembly module) is packaged and signed with your key, then handed to a coordinating server.
3. Volunteers' devices run it. The job is shared over a peer-to-peer network to worker nodes — computers other attendees are running. They agree among themselves on exactly one node to run your job (no central boss), so it isn't run twice.
4. The answer comes back to you. The result travels back through the network. To read it on this site you prove you hold your key, so the site shows it to you and not to other website users. (It's a prototype on an open, joinable network — fun, not private — so don't submit anything sensitive.)

There's no blockchain and no company server farm — the "cloud" is just everyone's devices, coordinating directly. It's a prototype, so keep it fun and don't submit anything sensitive.
