💡 **What You’ll Learn**:
You can join your friends in a dist cluster, by sharing a url with the
same hashtag, and enabling dist with the checkbox below the terminal.
Hashtag (for linking)
Please wait while the emulator starts. Javascript is required.
Warnings
- There is no security barrier between nodes in a dist cluster; you should
only use dist between nodes you control and trust - This demo uses gen_tcp_dist which communicates in plain text; you should
only use this on a network you control and trust - This demo uses wss://relay.widgetry.org to provide networking service;
chances are you don’t control that. - “no one in their right mind would run the unencrypted and
unauthenticated Erlang distribution unsecured over the internet.” —

thread - Maybe you got a link from not a friend, and you’re
connecting to a totally random person - If someone malicious can dist connect to your crazierl node, they can
control it, and if there’s a v86 vm escape, they could also control your browser window - Do not use credentials or enter sensitive information or PII
- Chatting with people on the internet can be dangerous.
- This operating system has not been modified to comply with California’s Digital Age Assurance Act
(2025 AB 1043), and may not be suitable for use in your jurisdiction.
Try chat:start(). after you’re dist connected!
More info about crazierl. This demo shows crazierl
running on an emulated x86 PC in your browser (courtesy of v86).
