Reticulum is a **complete networking stack**, and does not need IP or higher
layers, although it is easy to utilise IP (with TCP or UDP) as the underlying
carrier for Reticulum. It is therefore trivial to tunnel Reticulum over the
Internet or private IP networks. Reticulum is built directly on cryptographic
principles, allowing resilience and stable functionality in open and trustless
networks.

runs well even on small single-board computers like the Pi Zero.

features are implemented and functioning, but additions will probably occur as
real-world use is explored. *There will be bugs*. The API and wire-format can be
considered stable at the moment, but could change if absolutely warranted.
