## Getting Started

### Prerequisites

- Node.js (v14 or higher)
- TypeScript (v4.5 or higher)
- npm or yarn

### Installation

1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/accessor-io/ethereum-p2p.git
cd nexeth

2. Install dependencies:

npm install

3. Build the project:

npm run build

Usage

The project provides a modular architecture that can be integrated into various Ethereum-compatible applications. Here's a basic example:

import { NetworkManager } from './network/network';
import { StateManager } from './state/state';
import { PeerManager } from './node/peer_manager';

// Initialize core components
const stateManager = new StateManager();
const networkManager = new NetworkManager(stateManager);
const peerManager = new PeerManager(stateManager, networkManager);

// Start the network
networkManager.start().then(() => {
    console.log('Network started successfully');
});

Architecture

The project follows a modular architecture based on the following frameworks:

1. Initialization Framework

   • Bootstrap protocol
   • Primary/Secondary/Tertiary initialization

2. Security Matrix

   • Encryption layer
   • Key management
   • Hash functions

3. Memory Architecture

   • Buffer control
   • Memory optimization
   • Resource management

4. Network Protocols

   • Message handling
   • Peer management
   • Protocol versioning

5. Process Control Framework

   • State management
   • Event handling
   • Resource allocation
