A simple peer-to-peer (P2P) distributed file storage system built with Node.js, TypeScript, and UDP sockets. Each node can store and share files across the network using a lightweight protocol.
- Peer discovery and communication over UDP
- File storage and replication between nodes
- Metadata tracking and chunk storage
- Base64 encoding for binary data transfer (supports text and images)
- Simple logging and configuration per node
- Extendable P2P message handling (
PING,PONG,STORE, etc.)
