About

Vega is a desktop client for Nostr, a decentralized social network protocol.

It is built with Tauri and React, and treats long-form writing and reading

(NIP-23) as a first-class feature rather than an afterthought.

Features:

- Long-form article editor and reader (NIP-23)

- Lightning zaps via Nostr Wallet Connect (NIP-47, NIP-57)

- Value-for-value podcast streaming

- Web of trust filtering

- Optional built-in relay, so your notes stay available locally

- Encrypted direct messages

- Private keys stored in the operating system keychain
