# Decent

### A decent(ralized) network for business and development

#### A learning fork and altnet that combines [Scuttlebot](http://github.com/ssbc/scuttlebot) and [Minbase](http://github.com/evbogue/minbase)

In the beginning the web was distributed. Then companies in the valley centralized it for their own profit, impoverishing the creative class of the Internet. We're creating a decent alternative.

Decent is based on [Scuttlebot](http://scuttlebot.io), but uses an alternative network key: `EVRctE2Iv8GrO/BpQCF34e2FMPsDJot9x0j846LjVtc=`.

Decent combines all of the necessary parts of Scuttlebot for a simpler install process
