nx9 --version
-Next Generation 9
-Software people can own, understand, and control.-
NX9 is a philosophy-driven ecosystem of independent, self-hosted, privacy-first infrastructure software — single-binary Rust applications built for people and organizations who would rather run their own infrastructure than rent someone else's. No telemetry. No subscriptions. No mandatory cloud.
- -NX9 is not a framework, and it is not a cloud product that happens to support self-hosting. It is a collection of carefully engineered, single-binary Rust applications — designed for individuals and organizations that value ownership, simplicity, and independence, and built to run equally well on a Raspberry Pi, a mini PC, a VPS, or air-gapped government infrastructure.
-01 — Design Philosophy
-Principles That Don't Change Per Project
-Nine commitments that stay constant across every NX9 application, regardless of what it does.
-02 — Architecture
-Core Architectural Pillars
-Every NX9 application is built on the same nine foundations — the same reason a BZOD deployment and a ChronoSeal deployment feel like they came from the same shop.
-Security Stack
-Embedded, Not Bolted On
-Modern cryptographic primitives and hardened defaults, standardized across the whole ecosystem.
-Positioning
-The NX9 Trade-off, Made Explicit
-| Traditional Stack | NX9 |

03 — Ecosystem
-Current Projects
-Four projects are currently available. The NX9 ecosystem is designed to grow into a family of nine focused, self-hosted applications.
-Codeberg is the canonical home of NX9. GitHub repositories are maintained as mirrors to improve discoverability and make adoption easier.
-04 — Vision
-Why NX9 Exists
-In an era of cloud lock-in, subscriptions, and heavy dependencies, NX9 builds software that serves humanity — not platforms.
-Technology should empower people to own their infrastructure, data, and future.
-05 — Values
-Core Values
-The twelve commitments every NX9 decision is measured against.
-06 — Roadmap
-Roadmap to Nine
-NX9 is not a single application — it is an ecosystem of nine focused, interoperable tools built around ownership, privacy, simplicity, and open standards. Four projects are already available, with five more planned to complete the vision.
- - - -Nodes are ordered by ship date, not ambition — chronoseal, dns-server, auth, and url-shortener shipped in that sequence. Five more applications are planned to complete the family of nine, reusing the same Tokio · Axum · SQLite · Argon2 · Ed25519 · BLAKE3 foundation.
