Welcome to Allmydata.org "Tahoe"

Tahoe is a secure, decentralized, fault-tolerant filesystem. All of the source code is available under a Free Software, Open Source licence. This filesystem is encrypted and spread over multiple peers in such a way that it remains available even when some of the peers are unavailable, malfunctioning, or malicious. The one-page summary explains the unique properties of this system.

Get Started

Installing Tahoe tells how to install the software, how to run a node that can upload and download files, and how to set up your own private grid or connect to the public test grid.

DownloadDebianPackages contains pointers to an APT repository from which you can install pre-compiled packages on your Debian or Ubuntu system.

Get Involved

The tahoe-dev mailing list is the community forum for discussion of Tahoe design, implementation, and usage.

The Dev page is the place to start hacking on Tahoe. It has development tools (such as code coverage and patch browsing) and documentation.

Documentation

See the Doc page for explanation of how Tahoe works.
