gitforest provides a path beyond centralized source code systems like github and centralized model hosters like HuggingFace. This effort is more critical than ever with the amount of reliability issues github has been having in the agentic era and with the recent acquisition of HuggingFace by NVIDIA. 

Practically, gitforest provides users with a client to access a decentralized network from which they can download code from remote git repositories on peer machines. Users can share large language models through the p2p DHT protocol and can also submit compute jobs in the style of github actions which can run on docker containers hosted on machines available throughout the network. gitforest also contains methods for payment processing so people can pay to use compute on the network and can likewise get paid for the availability of their idle machine. 

To further use this technology to generate revenue for my business, I plan to work with enterprises to help them deploy their own internal git forests that can help them make the most use of their existing compute resources (i.e. employee laptops).
