Aral Balkan<p>👋🤓 Goodbye Site.js, Hello Kitten!</p><p>I started working on creating a Small Web¹ server (a peer-to-peer Web server) six years ago² with Site.js.</p><p>Building Site.js was my first attempt. And it resulted in:</p><p>• Auto Encrypt (automatic Let’s Encrypt certificates): <a href="https://codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-encrypt" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-e</span><span class="invisible">ncrypt</span></a></p><p>• Auto Encrypt Localhost (automatic localhost TLS certificates): <a href="https://codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-encrypt-localhost" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-e</span><span class="invisible">ncrypt-localhost</span></a></p><p>• @small-tech/https (drop-in Node.js https module replacement with automatic TLS certs everywhere): <a href="https://codeberg.org/small-tech/https" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">codeberg.org/small-tech/https</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>• JSDB: In-process, in-memory JavaScript database that persists to append-only JavaScript logs: <a

class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>As Site.js reached an evolutionary dead-end, and as I learned from my experiements with replicated data types that replicated data types are *not* a prerequisite for a decentralised web (actual topological decentralisation and ease of use are), I started writing a new server/platform called Kitten from scratch while still making use of the tried and tested modules listed above.</p><p>Last week, I switched over our last site using Site.js to Kitten and, with that, today I’ve sunset³ Site.js:</p><p><a href="https://sitejs.org" rel="nofollow noopener"

Aral Balkan<p>@small-tech/https version 5.3.0 released</p><p>• Uses Auto Encrypt 4.1.1 (removes OCSP stapling support because Let]s Encrypt has removed OCSP support).</p><p><a href="https://www.npmjs.com/package/@small-tech/https" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">npmjs.com/package/@small-tech/</span><span class="invisible">https</span></a></p><p>This module is a drop in replacement for Node HTTPS module that automatically handles TLS certificate provisioning and renewal both at localhost (via Auto Encrypt Localhost¹) and at hostname (via Auto Encrypt with Let’s Encrypt certificates²).</p><p>So, this is how you create a HTTPS server in Node.js that uses this module and automatically handles TLS certificate provisioning and renewal for you both at localhost (during development) and at hostname (during production):</p><p>```js<br>import https from '@small-tech/https'</p><p>const server = https.createServer((request, response) =&gt; {<br> response.end('Hello, world!')<br>})</p><p>server.listen(443, () =&gt; {<br> console.log(' 🎉 Server running at https://localhost.')<br>})<br>```</p><p>(Yes, that’s it! I wrote a metric shit-tonne of meticulously-tested code so you don’t have to.) :)</p><p>💡 Note that the localhost certificate support via Auto Encrypt Localhost is 100% JavaScript and does NOT rely on an external binary like mkcert or certutil.</p><p>Needless to say, Kitten³ uses this module under the hood and it’s a big part of why Domain⁴ can deploy servers so easily that don’t require any day-to-day maintenance.</p><p>In case you’re wondering why I’m spending so much time releasing all these modules, it’s because I believe in sharing every brick of the house I’m building so others can easily build different houses if they want to. I’m not saying that what I’m building with Kitten, Domain, and Place⁵ will be the end all be all of the Small Web⁶ (the peer-to-peer web). And I want others to be able to experiment by building their own tools without having to go through the grueling development process I’ve had to in the past six years to build basic infrastructure.</p><p>Enjoy!</p><p>💕</p><p>¹ <a href="https://codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-encrypt-localhost" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-e</span><span class="invisible">ncrypt-localhost</span></a><br>² <a href="https://codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-encrypt" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">codeberg.org/small-tech/auto-e</span><span class="invisible">ncrypt</span></a><br>³ <a href="https://kitten.small-web.org" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">kitten.small-web.org</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br>⁴ <a href="https://codeberg.org/domain/app" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">codeberg.org/domain/app</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br>⁵ <a href="https://codeberg.org/place/app" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">codeberg.org/place/app</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br>⁶ <a href="https://ar.al/2024/06/24/small-web-computer-science-colloquium-at-university-of-groningen/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">ar.al/2024/06/24/small-web-com</span><span class="invisible">puter-science-colloquium-at-university-of-groningen/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/SmallWeb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SmallWeb</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/SmallTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SmallTech</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/AutoEncrypt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AutoEncrypt</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/LetsEncrypt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LetsEncrypt</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/localhost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>localhost</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/TLS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TLS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/SSL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SSL</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/HTTPS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HTTPS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/Kitten" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Kitten</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/NodeJS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NodeJS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/JavaScript" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JavaScript</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/servers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>servers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/web" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>web</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/dev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>dev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FOSS</span></a></p>
