I want to build a relay, how do I start? And I don't want a nostr1 relay.
Discussion
what programming language are you comfortable with?
None, that's the issue. Trying to learn, but it's hard.
You can have a look at https://github.com/zapstore/ftsrelay (a custom relay I built for zap.store)
Not the most tested relay impl out there, but:
- written in javascript which is probably easier to get started than go or rust
- relatively small
- you can ask me if there's something you don't understand
Ok, thanks!
Use this to store events in SQLite/Postgres: https://nostrify.dev/store/sql
Then glue it to a web server with Hono: https://hono.dev/
Cool!
