Lilypad Network
Work on a distributed compute network, focused on developer experience and the documentation that shapes it.
Open the project
Lilypad is a decentralised compute network that lets anyone run a Docker container across a distributed set of providers. My work on it focused on user experience and documentation, making the platform reachable for developers and businesses who were not already inside it.
What I contributed
- Worked with the development team to identify and document the core use cases
- Wrote the documentation explaining how to use the distributed compute capabilities
- Helped articulate what the platform was for, per user segment
- Improved the onboarding path for new users
What it runs on
- Docker, so any containerised workload can run on the network
- The Filecoin Virtual Machine, providing the decentralised compute resources
- Bacalhau, powering the distributed computing itself
- A Go implementation on the backend
