How the Dat Protocol Works

I agree. This is one of the best, modern protocol documentations I've seen. I've been tempted to redo old, but critical RFCs (FTP, HTTP, PNG, TCP, IP, etc) in a similar manner.

I would pay good money for well thoughtout docs on all those protocols including HTTP, DNS, how they relate to mdns / avahi / bonjour and other modern implementations and differ as well as the IRC protocol. I would love to read RFCs front to back but I learn by talking with someone about tech or just seeing schematics / diagrams and pics and then lastly sheer experience.

For HTTP I highly recommend https://github.com/for-GET/http-decision-diagram/blob/master...

Scroll to Overview and then there are links to each section in the diagram

Great on desktop, unreadable on mobile though.
