gold

No longer under active development (the team is focusing on LDNode), gold is in bugfix/maintenance mode. Reference Solid platform server written in Go. See databox.me for an example instance.

Reference Solid platform server written in Node.js/Express.

OpenLink Virtuoso

More specifically, the WebDAV File System Module a/k/a OpenLink Data Spaces (ODS) Layer.  ODS is a Data Space Shim built around Virtuoso's WebDAV layer that adheres to Solid conventions of —

• Identity — via WebID
• Identity Verification (or Authentication) — via WebID+TLS or WebID-OIDC (WebID-OIDC is still a work-in-progress)
• Document Access Controls (or Authorization) — via WebACLS or WAC
• Read-Write Operations on Documents — via HTTP PATCH using application/sparql-update payloads

Minimum installation atop basic Virtuoso (Enterprise Edition only) installation is Virtuoso Authentication Layer (VAL), ODS-Framework, and ODS-Briefcase VADs.

rww-play

LDP-compliant Read-Write-Web server written in Scala/Play/akka.

Legacy Servers

No longer actively maintained.

ldphp

Libraries

Node.js

• node-webid - library to manage WebID identities and certificates.

• rdflib.js - RDF library for Linked Data applications.

• solid.js - library to interact with Solid-compliant applications. Creates and manages LDP containers, provides WebID authentication, and more.
