We'd like to introduce the #Fedify project family—a set of related tools that make building #ActivityPub applications more accessible: ### [Fedify] :fedify: [Fedify] (@npub1tlfg...wz08) is a #TypeScript library for building federated server applications powered by ActivityPub and other #fediverse standards. It provides [type-safe objects for Activity Vocabulary][1], WebFinger client/server, HTTP Signatures, and more—eliminating boilerplate code so you can focus on your application logic. [Fedify]: [1]: ### [Hollo] :hollo: [Hollo] (@npub1mz3d...tpw7) is a single-user microblogging server powered by Fedify. While designed for individual users, it's fully federated through ActivityPub, allowing interaction with users across the fediverse. #Hollo implements Mastodon-compatible APIs, making it [compatible with most Mastodon clients][2] without needing its own web interface. Hollo also serves as our testing ground for bleeding-edge Fedify features before they're officially released. [Hollo]: [2]: ### [BotKit] :botkit: [BotKit] (@npub1sqlc...0z0c) is our newest family member—a framework specifically designed for creating ActivityPub bots. Unlike traditional Mastodon bots, #BotKit creates standalone ActivityPub servers that aren't constrained by platform-specific limitations (like character counts). BotKit's API is intentionally simple—you can create a complete bot in a single TypeScript file! [BotKit]: --- All three projects are open source and hosted under the [@fedify-dev] GitHub organization. While they serve different purposes, they share common goals: making ActivityPub development more accessible and expanding the fediverse ecosystem.
