LAMP built the open web.
SAND builds the decentralized one.
Four layers. Complete stack. Own your data. Provably safe agents.
Solid, ActivityPub, Nostr, and DIDβthe foundational technologies for a web where users own their data and agents serve their interests.

SAND
LAMP gave us Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP. SAND gives us Solid, ActivityPub, Nostr, DID. Same idea, new era.
Solid
Decoupled data & apps. Store in pods you control. Apps read with permission.
solidproject.org βActivityPub
Federated social. Follow anyone, post anywhere. Your network, your rules.
activitypub.rocks βNostr
Censorship-resistant messaging. Cryptographic identity. Relay-based distribution.
nostr.com βDID
Decentralized identity. Self-sovereign, portable, no registries. Best implemented with did:nostr.
w3c.github.io/did-core βThe Projects
Servers, specs, tools, and bridgesβall working together.
