:IF: AutonomiNet

Hello friends,

I am pleased to present you with a few apps we worked on with @saykor ! You can vote for this app here: AutonomiNet :dragon:

AutonomiNet

A C# library that empowers .NET developers to build truly decentralized applications on the Autonomi infrastructure — with zero central servers, full privacy, and unstoppable data storage.

The goal? Making decentralized development accessible to the .NET ecosystem with a seamless, native API for Autonomi.

Today’s internet is broken. Developers rely on centralized services, exposing users to outages, surveillance, and data loss. Meanwhile, the .NET ecosystem — powering millions of enterprise and desktop applications — has no easy way to tap into the decentralized web.

AutonomiNet changes that.

It bridges .NET with the Autonomi (SafeNetwork) decentralized storage and communication layer. Developers can now create C# applications that:

  • Upload and retrieve files with no middlemen
  • Store data permanently on a global peer-to-peer network
  • Build secure apps with user-owned data
  • Eliminate dependency on cloud providers

:light_bulb: According to StackOverflow, over 25% of professional developers use .NET or C#. Yet until now, they’ve been excluded from the decentralized revolution. AutonomiNet opens the doors.

:chart_increasing: Vision & Scalability

AutonomiNet is not just another wrapper — it’s a gateway. By empowering one of the largest developer ecosystems in the world to go decentralized, it can bring mass adoption to the Autonomi network. It’s unique, because it’s the only fully native C# integration for this kind of decentralized infrastructure. It’s designed to scale alongside Autonomi itself — from hobby projects to enterprise solutions.

Features

  • :electric_plug: Seamless Integration – Built as a native .NET library, with support for MAUI, Blazor, WPF, and more
  • :brain: Smart API Layer – Easy-to-use abstractions for common decentralized tasks: file storage, data versioning, and secure sharing
  • :locked: Private & Public Data Support – Fully encrypted user data, with optional public access when needed
  • :high_voltage: Async-first Design – Built on modern C# async/await patterns
  • :puzzle_piece: Modular – Developers choose what to include: files, messaging, metadata, etc.
  • :globe_showing_europe_africa: Cross-Platform – Windows, Linux, Android supported
  • :hammer_and_wrench: Developer Tooling – Includes diagnostics, logging, and optional integration with AI assistants for content classification or tagging

Target Users

  • .NET developers building file-centric or user-data-centric applications
  • Indie devs creating offline-first or censorship-resistant apps
  • Enterprise teams needing secure alternatives to cloud storage
  • Archivists, researchers, creators – anyone who wants to control their data

Data types

  • Read/Write: Fully supports both upload and download
  • Data Visibility: Supports both private (encrypted) and public (shared) content
  • Network Integration: Uses Autonomi’s native data types like immutable data, append-only logs, and NRS links
