Tutorials and learning materials for building on Arkiv.
Let knowledge and networks light the way as we navigate the dark forest together.
This repository exists to share open source knowledge and code, making decentralized development accessible to everyone. We believe in:
- Open Knowledge - All tutorials, examples, and reference materials are freely available
- Community Learning - Building together, sharing what we learn
- Practical Examples - Real, working code you can use and learn from
- Decentralized Future - Empowering developers to build without central dependencies
A 1-hour hands-on workshop to build your first decentralized app with Arkiv.
What you'll learn:
- Data sovereignty & decentralized databases
- Building full-stack web3 applications
- Using Arkiv to replace traditional app servers
- Deploying a simple micro-app on Arkiv
Outcome: Each participant deploys a simple micro-app that passes the "walkaway test" - data persists independently, no central database required.
Reference materials extracted from Arkiv ecosystem projects:
- arkiv-nextjs-starter - Next.js starter template for Arkiv applications
- arkiv-app-kit - TypeScript utilities for building Arkiv apps
- arkiv-ai-agent-kit - AI agent prompts and patterns for Arkiv development
These extractions serve as reference materials, showing real-world patterns and implementations you can learn from and build upon.
- Arkiv Network - Decentralized data layer
- Arkiv Dev Portal - Developer resources and tools
- Arkiv TypeScript Getting Started - Official getting started guide
- Understories - Tech and social innovations

We welcome contributions! Whether it's:
- Improving existing tutorials
- Adding new tutorials or examples
- Fixing bugs or clarifying documentation
- Sharing your own Arkiv projects as reference
Together, we can make decentralized development more accessible to everyone.
In a world where centralized services can disappear, change terms, or go offline, decentralized applications offer a different path. By building on Arkiv and sharing what we learn, we're:
- Preserving Knowledge - Tutorials and examples that persist independently
- Building Networks - Connecting developers who share these values
- Lighting the Path - Making it easier for others to follow
Let knowledge and networks light the way as we navigate the dark forest together.
