Nostr Virtual University

Date and Time TBD

A 2 Hour session for new Nostr Developers, comprised of setup instructions and all you need to know to get started quickly.

Welcome to the Sideways Nostr microsite.

Nostr is a new simple, open, decentralized communications protocol that is potentially revolutionary.

Nostr is also the fastest-growing communications protocol in history. Jack Dorsey, the founder of Twitter, Square, and Block, donated 14 Bitcoin on December 15, 2022, to support early development. There is already a Nostr Conference planned for March 19-21,2023, in Costa Rica.

Nostr could replace products like Twitter, Facebook, and TikTok with non-corporate versions. And developers don’t need anyone’s permission to build stuff on Nostr.

We plan to use Nostr extensively as the social component of Sideways.
