Get Doorstep

Bundle version 1.0.0 · neighbors first; technical details for hosts are below.

Use this if your organizer sent you a link here. Prefer the desktop app when you have it — keys stay on your device.

Neighbors (recommended)

Download doorstep.webhapp below — install bundle for Kangaroo / holochain launcher.
Open it in your desktop launcher. The bundled app fills connection details for you.
Pick a nickname and connect.

No desktop? Use the browser board with the connection info your organizer shares.

For organizers & node hosts

Install the hApp — put doorstep.happ on your Holochain conductor (link below).
Browser pilots — expose the app WebSocket with TLS (wss://) and allow this site’s origin.
Onboard neighbors — share doorstep.webhapp + launcher, or the browser link + ticket for hosted-only pilots.

Full checklist: operator docs

Who are you?

Neighbor / pilot

First choice: doorstep.webhapp + launcher. Or the browser board with organizer instructions.

Install doorstep.happ, wire TLS + app WebSocket. See operator docs and For organizers above.

Install URLs (if your stack installs from a URL)

If .webhapp 404s, run npm run build:webhapp then npm run edge:bundle on your build machine.

Downloads

Edge base URL (baked into this page): https://doorstep.social

Deploy the edge-bundle folder so these URLs respond on that host.

Building this site (developers only)

Bake absolute URLs when packaging:

DOORSTEP_EDGE_BASE_URL=https://your-edge-host npm run edge:bundle

PowerShell: $env:DOORSTEP_EDGE_BASE_URL="https://your-edge-host"; npm run edge:bundle

Optional env: DOORSTEP_EDGE_DISPLAY_NAME, DOORSTEP_EDGE_SITE_TAG. Legacy COVENANT_EDGE_* still works.
