Note
Looking for a quick demo? Here it is: Fedify Demo on Deno Playground.
Fedify is a TypeScript library for building federated server apps powered by ActivityPub and other standards, so-called fediverse.1 It aims to eliminate the complexity and redundant boilerplate code when building a federated server app, so that you can focus on your business logic and user experience.
Currently, Fedify provides the following features out of the box:
- Type-safe objects for Activity Vocabulary (including some vendor-specific extensions)
- WebFinger client and server
- HTTP Signatures & HTTP Message Signatures
- Object Integrity Proofs & Linked Data Signatures
- Middlewares for handling webhooks
- NodeInfo protocol
- Special touch for interoperability with Mastodon and few other popular fediverse software
- Integration with various web frameworks
- CLI toolchain for testing and debugging
If you want to know more about the project, please take a look at the following resources:
If you have any questions, suggestions, or feedback, please feel free to join our Matrix chat space or Discord server or GitHub Discussions. Or tag #Fedify in the fediverse!
