Eyre: Commentary

Let us follow the loading of a simple tic tac toe app, as it bounces from browser to server to browser and back.

Initial request

An http request for http://sampel-sipnym.urbit.org/tic will be redirected to the %eyre on ~sampel-sipnym, and come in as a %this kiss.

From arvo, requests enter ++call, which after some type reification are passed along to ++apex:ye. In the case of a %this kiss, its components are parsed and handed off to ++handle.

Apendix A: DNS[#dns]

The *.urbit.org domain can be used to access destroyers and cruisers. In the common case oh hosted ships, this is done by dynamic DNS directly to the hosting instance. We do not speak of the uncommon case. When ports are blocked and infrastructure crumbles around you, only imported martian networking can be trusted: the %get and %got grams are used to proxy %this requests and %thou responses respectively.
