" summary

Demonstrations show a versioned app cached permanently (hyperboot), an in-browser identity store signing via SSH/GitHub keys (keyboot), browser-to-native file streaming with webtorrent over WebRTC, and a Slack‑like friends app built on hyperlog that reconciles forks; most demos function live though one demo faces network flakiness during playback.
