Why This Matters

Wanter introduces a decentralized, community-driven tool that allows users to explore the 'small web' through interconnected consoles hosted on different websites. This innovative approach fosters a collaborative browsing experience and empowers individuals to create and share their own personal web spaces. Its significance lies in promoting decentralization and community engagement within the web ecosystem, offering a unique alternative to centralized browsing platforms.

Key Takeaways

By wandering to another console, you will leave the current console on this website and reach a Wander console on a different website. You can then continue wandering the Web using the console on that website.

About Wander

Hello! You are currently on a Wander console! A Wander console lets you browse random websites and pages from the Wander community. The Wander community consists of individuals who develop and maintain their own personal websites.

To set up your own Wander console, download this ZIP file, extract index.html and wander.js, and place them in the /wander/ directory of your website. Then edit wander.js by following the directions at codeberg.org/susam/wander.

That's it! Once your /wander/ directory is ready on your web server, you can share a link to your Wander console in this community thread. Hopefully, someone will add your console to theirs and you will become part of the Wander network.
