When my first two words failed, and all the vowels were eliminated, I knew I was going to have a bad time.

I'm trying to take a different path with my Nostr library stack. So far I've done the consensus layer for the Nostr protocol (roots) and the websocket message schema (roots-ws) in both go and typescript. And I'm working on the basic messaging library (honeybee). And as you need advanced features, the goal is to place them in separate libraries. And then you compose the parts you need into an app.

That's how I started. All my early projects were messy, but they did exactly what they needed to. It's just matter of making clean projects that do exactly what they need to do. There's no tradeoff.

But moreso than software, it was real physical engineering that taught me the value of quality up front. Anything can be made to work, but only a few things can be made to last.

I'm a very specific breed of programming extremist.

It all started with Clean Code, test-driven development, and composite design; and really clicked with the software model described by the Softwar thesis.

If I weren't making my whole stack from scratch, I'd give it a go. Go-nostr doesn't have the right primitives for what I want to do, nor do I want to fork it because it's too bloated.
