+An open protocol for building social Web applications.

+Part of the [[Beaker browser]] project.
+
+Unwalled.Garden is a kind of “Souped up [[RSS]].” Every user has a website, they publish their content as files, and they subscribe to each others’ sites.
+
+While [[RSS]] was primarily for blogging, Unwalled.Garden includes data types for many kinds of use-cases. These data types are spread across many JSON files which have pre-defined schemas.
+
+The schemas are simple, obvious, and syntax-free. A “post” record looks like this:
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "unwalled.garden/post",
+  "body": "Hello, world!",
+  "createdAt": "2019-05-21T21:27:45.471Z"
+}
+```
