Radicle Heartwood Protocol & Stack

Heartwood is the third iteration of the Radicle Protocol, a powerful peer-to-peer code collaboration and publishing stack. The repository contains a full implemention of Heartwood, complete with a user-friendly command-line interface (rad) and network daemon (radicle-node).

Radicle was designed to be a secure, decentralized and powerful alternative to code forges such as GitHub and GitLab that preserves user sovereignty and freedom.
