Inspiration

All of us has at least once sold or bought something through an App. But why go through a middleman when we can connect with the other person directly? After learning about Pear, we knew that it was the perfect technology to implement our idea.

What it does

S2B is a 100% Peer-to-Peer (P2P) marketplace application built on Pear Runtime. Unlike a traditional e-commerce store, there is no central server; buyers connect directly to sellers through a distributed network.

How we built it

We built it using Pears' runtime framework for all the Peer To Peer features alongside Node.js, HTML and CSS to build the app.

Challenges we ran into

This was the first time we developed a P2P app, so we had to first understand the fundamentals. In addition to that, we ran into some issues with the images processing and hyperblob, it took us a long time to figure out what was breaking the app.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are incredibly proud of building an app with a technology we have never used before in less than 36 hours!

What we learned

  • P2P
  • Pear framework
  • Node, JavaScript client. ## What's next for B2S Adding automatic seller discovery using Hyperswarm.
