# suproc
*Suproc* is *corpus* (Latin for "body") spelled backwards. A local-first, privacy-focused spreadsheet app.
## Architecture
Basically, light server and fat client.
### Server
- Server is only used for data transportation and broadcasting.
- Everything is encrypted before sending to the server and only decrypted on client-side.
- Server is also used for key exchange in between clients.
- Server is optional and everything else works offline.
### Client
- Client is the "Database"
- Client stores original and copies of sheets.
- When sharing, the client sends a copy of sheet to the other client
- Copies across different clients are synced using CRDT through server
- Client stores data in open formats.
- Client makes data retrieval and manipulation easy and fun
- Client embeds [Janet](http://janet-lang.org/) to manipulate data (e.g. making HTTP requests, filtering by custom computed fields and etc.)
- Client supports cron job that updates data (executes Janet script) automatically
- Client supports custom commands and Vim-like key bindings
- Client is extensible by the power of Lisp
- Client acts as a Janet interpreter itself, which is sort of like Emacs
- Client can be extended using plugins written in Janet
## Project structure
This is a monorepo.

└─desktop # desktop wrapper of client
```
## Tech Stack
- Server and client core: **Go**
- Desktop and web: **Wails** + **Vue**
- Communication: **WebSocket**
- [coder/websocket](https://github.com/coder/websocket) on the server
- Vanilla [WebSocket API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WebSocket) on the client (?)
- Conflict resolution: **CRDT**
- [crdt](https://github.com/neurodrone/crdt) in pure Go
- See also [Yjs](https://github.com/yjs/yjs) in JavaScript
- Scripting: **Janet**
- [janet-go](https://github.com/meinside/janet-go)
TODO Encryption (age?)
