About noStrudel
noStrudel is a web client for Nostr, the decentralised social protocol. Its developer describes it as a sandbox for exploring Nostr, and it aims to expose more of the protocol than simpler clients do.
You can use it in a browser, or run your own copy: the repository includes a Dockerfile and a docker-compose file. It suits people who already use Nostr and want a client that shows more of how the network works.
