Whisper is a pure identity-based messaging system. Whisper provides a low-level (non-application-specific) but easily-accessible API without being based upon or influenced by the low-level hardware attributes and characteristics. Peer-to-peer communication between nodes running Whisper clients uses the underlying ÐΞVp2p Wire Protocol. Whisper is not designed to provide a connection oriented system, nor for simply delivering data between a pair of particular network endpoints. Whisper is a new protocol designed expressly for a new paradigm of application development. It is designed from the ground up for easy and efficient multi-casting and broadcasting, and also for low-level partially-asynchronous communications. It is designed to be a building block in next generation ÐApps which require large-scale many-to-many data-discovery, signal negotiation and modest transmissions with an absolute minimum of fuss and the expectation that one has a very reasonable assurance of complete privacy.

Compilation of questions and answers about Relay from React.js Conf.
Disclaimer: I work on Relay at Facebook. Relay is a complex system on which we're iterating aggressively. I'll do my best here to provide accurate, useful answers, but the details are subject to change. I may also be wrong. Feedback and additional questions are welcome.
Relay is a new framework from Facebook that provides data-fetching functionality for React applications. It was announced at React.js Conf (January 2015).
