Build Decentralized Apps
with Nostr Protocol

Skip the centralized platforms. Build apps where users own their data, can't be deplatformed, and have true freedom of expression.

What You Can Build

Nostr enables a new generation of decentralized applications. Here's what developers are building.

Social Networks

Decentralized Twitter-like platforms where users own their data and can't be deplatformed.

  • User-owned profiles
  • Real-time messaging
  • Censorship resistance

Chat Applications

End-to-end encrypted messaging apps that work across multiple clients and relays.

  • Cross-platform messaging
  • Group conversations
  • No vendor lock-in

Content Platforms

Blogging, news, and media platforms where creators maintain full ownership of their content.

  • Creator monetization
  • Global distribution
  • Portable audiences

...and So Much More

These are just the beginning. With Nostr's open protocol, developers are constantly pushing boundaries and creating innovative applications we never imagined possible.
