# Damus Web
# Yo, Sup?
Here lies the code for the Damus web app, a client for the Nostr protocol. The
goal of this client is to be a better version of Twitter, but not to reproduce
all of it's functionality.
Yo Sup? or simply "Yo" for short is a web client for the Nostr protocol. Its
aim is to be as good of an experience (if not better than) as Twitter. Note Yo
will not be the same as Twitter and will not implement all of it's features.
Nor will Yo try to implement all of Nostr's features as there are many.
The true purpose of Yo is to provide a great experience on any platform for
anyone. It should be easy to use and understand making it a great option for
people coming from other social networks to engage in their community.
Yo comes from the legacy Damus Web app an holds all of its history. It has been
rewritten to accomodate for the scale issues that we have seen so that it can
continue to be used. The main reason for branching off is due to the lack of
parity between Damus iOS (and new codebase improvements) and that of what the
web version would support.
New minor features will continue to be added, but nothing substancial without
full time maintainers. Security will always be a top concern.
