Wish
P2P identity and networking for your devices

Wish is a p2p networking layer where identity is the foundation. It manages your cryptographic identities, discovers peers, and provides encrypted connections between your devices and contacts. Applications connect to Wish and get identity, networking, and sync without building their own.
Wish runs as a tray app bundled with Dashboard — a web UI for managing identities, contacts, connections, and app permissions.
