[Iris-lib](https://github.com/irislib/iris-lib) is a library built on Gun that allows the integration of decentralized social networking features into applications. An experimental social network application, [Iris](https://github.com/irislib/iris), was built to demonstrate its features: public messaging, [private chats](<(https://iris.to/), web of trust, and contact management. Iris-lib uses [Gun](../proocols/gun.md) for networking and data storage, and [IPFS](../protocols/ipfs.md) for attachments and message backups. The team is funded by Gun, and also accepts donations.

Iris uses WoT (Web-of-Trust) attestations to link human readable names to key-pair and other identity attributes. Users only see messages in their WoT, from users who have been upvoted by someone in a chain from someone they upvoted. Downvotes are also possible. [Reputation](https://medium.com/@mmalmi/learning-to-trust-strangers-167b652a654f) is not represented by a static score, but by how a user's personal web of trust regards them. A percentage threshold of confidence in a person's identity is calculated by the number of attestations relative to the size of the network.
