Product direction, engineering write-ups, and the reasoning behind what Lupyd ships and what it deliberately leaves out.
Protobuf has no UUID type and probably never will. We measured the options with protoc: bytes and two fixed64 fields take 18 bytes, a string takes 38. Here is how byte order, JSON mapping, map keys, validation and language bindings decide which one to use.
We ran a 1,500-endpoint benchmark comparing WebTransport against WebSockets under simulated cellular packet loss and WAN latency in Firefly. Here are the hard numbers: an 80% cut in tail latency, 85% lower peak CPU, and the real-world trade-offs in memory and bandwidth.
WebTransport offers multiplexed streams without head-of-line blocking and unreliable datagrams over QUIC. All major browsers support it. Yet almost no one uses it in production. Here is why the reverse proxy bottleneck is keeping the web on WebSockets.
Tauri or Electron? We compare bundle size, security, Rust vs Node.js, mobile support, and Linux WebView issues, with real code from Lupyd's encrypted messenger, which runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS.
We could have run our own SFU fleet or rented a proprietary video SDK. Instead, Lupyd runs 1:1 calls on Cloudflare TURN and group voice channels on RealtimeKit. Here's why, with the Rust and TypeScript code that makes it work.
What happens when you test Postgres wire protocol over QUIC streams across a 30ms link? Experimental setup, benchmark observations, and practical tradeoffs.
Why Lupyd, Firefly, and Noon are binary-first across client HTTP endpoints, Protobuf Web Tokens, database storage, and cryptographic workflows without touching gRPC.
