every.channel

A global, disaggregated mesh of relays that turns local ATSC antennas into a coherent, worldwide stream. The stack is Rust-first, MoQ-native, and designed for deterministic chunking so identical broadcasts yield identical data.

Goals

Free, global access to broadcast TV through user-run relays.
Deterministic encoding and chunking to make availability a coordination problem.
Clean layering: capture -> transcode -> MoQ publish -> relay -> client playback.
Cross-platform clients: Tauri app, CLI, and a static web UI.

Repository layout

crates/ec-core: shared types and determinism profiles.

trunk serve --port 1420 --public-url /

cd ../
cargo run

Status

This repository is intentionally minimal. It captures the initial architecture and scaffold for a MoQ-first network and will expand as proposals are accepted.
