# ForgeSworn

> ForgeSworn is an open-source workshop: apps you can use today and libraries you can build with, on Nostr, Lightning and plain cryptography, so that identity, money, files, location and conversations answer to the person rather than to a platform. 69 MIT-licensed repos in 11 focus areas that work standalone or compose into full workflows.

## Pages

- [Landing page](https://forgesworn.dev/): products you can run today, the creed, and the full repo catalogue grouped into eleven focus areas
- [Use cases](https://forgesworn.dev/use-cases.html): 32 end-to-end workflows, each naming the exact libraries it composes
- [GitHub organisation](https://github.com/forgesworn): all source code
- [402.pub](https://402.pub): live directory of Lightning-paid APIs

## Products people can use today
