## What it is
GhostNet is a community-driven framework and documentation set for building off-grid radio communications networks that let people exchange information without pre-existing internet infrastructure. It aims to integrate radio technology into everyday life as a resilient supplement to the internet.

## Use cases
- set up an off-grid radio network for my community
- communicate without internet during a disaster
- replace daily information needs with radio when offline
- build a resilient mesh of radio nodes
- learn how to share information off-grid
- prepare emergency communications for my family
- exchange messages without relying on ISPs

## When to choose
- you want documented guidance for building off-grid radio information networks
- you need resilient communication channels independent of internet infrastructure
- you are interested in community-run emergency or preparedness networks

## When to avoid
- you need a turnkey software product with an installable binary or library
- you require guaranteed high-bandwidth internet replacement
- you need a project with a permissive software license for commercial use

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: networking, p2p, self-hosted
- domain: networking, privacy, censorship-circumvention, self-hosted
- platform: cross-platform, cli
- tags: off-grid, radio, mesh-network, emergency-communications, ham-radio, community-network, automation
