Patchwork is a decentralized sharing app.
It was built for friends of the SSB project, to test basic functions.
We use it as a test-bed for features, and for our own daily messaging.
SSB is a research project, Ask on #tetalab for joining our experimental node
That's our informal barrier to entry right now, since we're not prepared for lots of users yet.

Patchwork embeds [Scuttlebot](https://github.com/ssbc/scuttlebot), so if you're running Patchwork, you don't need to run another scuttlebot server.
## Running Patchwork
Current install steps are:
```
# ubuntu
apt-get install automake libtool
# osx
brew install automake libtool
```
Also, you'll need to use iojs@2.
The easiest way to get this is [nvm](https://github.com/creationix/nvm).
```
nvm install iojs-v2.5.0
```
Then, install the software:
```
git clone https://github.com/ssbc/patchwork.git
cd patchwork
npm install
npm start
```
And then join a pub server.
