Holo Acquires Hylo Community and Collaboration Software
Summary
Hylo, their flagship platform, was created to support people solving the great challenges of our time and empower communities to build a world that works for everyone. Encouraging collaboration between communities is a key part of our organizational DNA and we’ve also acquired Hylo to extend that intention throughout the Holo and Holochain ecosystems. Hylo’s currently operational app is a well-architected communication platform that will serve as an open-source commons for the Holochain community to use and build a next generation of collaboration tools. Additionally, from both a design and an engineering perspective, the way Hylo is structured makes it perfectly suited to being converted to run in the future as a decentralized application on Holochain. The Holo hosting platform lets you run web-apps in a fully distributed manner, on potentially thousands of nodes all over the world, with no single point of failure, and no central control over the data.
