Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install nng on Fedora 34.

What is `nng`

nng (nanomsg next generation) is a socket library that provides several common communication patterns. It aims to make the networking layer fast, scalable, and easy to use. Implemented in C, it works on a wide range of operating systems with no further dependencies. The communication patterns, also called “scalability protocols”, are basic blocks for building distributed systems. By combining them you can create a vast array of distributed applications. nng 1.4.0 1.fc34 x86_64 190 k nng-1.4.0-1.fc34.src.rpm fedora nanomsg next generation https MIT nng (nanomsg next generation) is a socket library that provides several common communication patterns.
