Agenda

Three mesh sessions are confirmed for camp. They're accepted but not yet scheduled — times, rooms and public links land on the camp schedule once published, and get announced over Meshcore (the pretalx bot) and at the Mesh Nest. All three have devices available on site from €20, so you can walk in empty-handed and leave on the mesh.

Off the grid: build an app over radio on Reticulum (LoRa)

Workshop · when TBC · where TBC · accepted, not yet scheduled

Write software that survives without the internet — Reticulum carries it over LoRa, packet radio, or anything else that moves data. We build a small app on top of Reticulum and run it over real LoRa hardware on site: identities, destinations, links and resources, plus LXMF store-and-forward messaging and exposing services other nodes can reach. Examples are in Python; the patterns translate to Rust or C. What you build can also be served over the Freifunk wifi — or the internet — after the workshop.

Bring a laptop. Some programming experience assumed; no radio background needed. → Reticulum → Workshop

Join the DWeb Camp Mesh!

Lightning talk · when TBC · where TBC · accepted, not yet scheduled

A five-minute tour of the camp mesh and an open invitation to join. We run Reticulum, Meshcore and Meshtastic on site; this is the nudge to get on while you're here — all it takes is a $5 radio. Devices available for inspection and purchase after the talk. → Start here

Introduction to Meshtastic and Meshcore (hands-on)

Workshop · when TBC · where TBC · accepted, not yet scheduled

Build a working radio mesh in one hour — no internet, no cloud, no accounts. Open firmware turns cheap LoRa radios into self-organizing meshes. Hands-on: flash firmware, set channels and keys, then message across the room and the camp — comparing Meshtastic's flood routing with Meshcore's source-routed approach, inside the EU 868 MHz duty cycle. Time permitting: antennas and solar nodes.

Bring a phone or tablet to connect (and a laptop if you want to keep configuring). No radio experience needed. → Devices · Meshcore → Flash

All three are confirmed and accepted, not yet scheduled. Times, rooms and public links appear on the camp schedule once published, and are announced over Meshcore (the pretalx bot) and at the Mesh Nest (tent 5).
