Zyre provides reliable group messaging over local area networks.

It has these key characteristics: * Zyre needs no administration or configuration. * Peers may join and leave the network at any time. * Peers talk to each other without any central brokers or servers. * Peers can talk directly to each other. * Peers can join groups, and then talk to groups. * Zyre is reliable, and loses no messages even when the network is heavily loaded. * Zyre is fast and has low latency, requiring no consensus protocols. * Zyre is designed for WiFi networks, yet also works well on Ethernet networks. * Time for a new peer to join a network is about one second.

Typical use cases for Zyre are: * Local service discovery. * Clustering of a set of services on the same Ethernet network. * Controlling a network of smart devices (Internet of Things). * Multi-user mobile applications (like smart classrooms).
