    Just cause…

    I’m trying to get into fediverse/ activity pub development and i’m trying to find like a “hello world” level tutorial. Does anyone have any thoughts or know an example?

      For me, trying to read the actual protocol or even tutorials that try to explain the protocol in a more approachable manner, didn’t help at all. It’s no understatement that ActivityPub itself is a mess.

      But reading the Fedify documentation and describing “activities” with the library helped a lot more!

      Even if you don’t plan on writing Js/Ts, I recommend the Fedify tutorial.
