How free nodes work in production
Every phone is a node. Messages hop node β node over Bluetooth LE mesh / Wi-Fi Direct / LoRa (Meshtastic-style): zero airtime, zero data cost, works during outages and in rural no-coverage areas.
Store-and-forward: each node keeps messages locally (IndexedDB) and relays them when a peer comes in range; dedupe by msgId, max hops + TTL bound the flood.
Gateway nodes (Youth Resource Centres, CDF offices, schools with internet) sync the local mesh to the cloud β so opportunities posted offline still reach the whole country.
Hosted on Cloudflare: Pages (PWA) + Workers + Durable Objects (live relay) + D1 + R2 β free tier covers the pilot.
