Yggdrasil is a new experimental compact routing scheme. It is designed to be a future-proof and decentralised alternative to the structured routing protocols commonly used today on the Internet, as well as an enabling technology for future large-scale mesh networks. Yggdrasil is:

Scalable

Supports large, complex or even Internet-scale topologies

Self-healing

Network responds quickly to connection failures or mobility events

Encrypted

Traffic sent across the network is always fully end-to-end encrypted

Peer-to-peer

Works entirely ad-hoc by design with no built-in points of centralisation

Cross-platform

Supported on Linux, macOS, Windows, iOS, Android and more
