Arc

How to use Arc

Arc is a peer-to-peer content delivery network that allows you to load and deliver web pages or files from other users' browsers instead of traditional servers. You can use Arc by integrating its JavaScript library into your website or application, which will enable your pages to be loaded faster with less latency and cost.

To start using Arc, you need to sign up for an account on their website and create a new project. Once you have created a project, you can add the Arc JavaScript library to your website's HTML code by including the following script tag:

<script src="https://cdn.arc.io/arc-sw-core.js"></script>

After you have added this script tag, you need to register your website URL with Arc by calling the

API in your JavaScript code. Here's an example of how to do this:

if (window.arc_io) {
  arc_io.register("https://yourwebsite.com");
}

Once you have registered your website with Arc, you can configure various settings such as caching policies, fallbacks, and optimizations to optimize your content delivery. You can also monitor your usage and payments through the Arc dashboard.

By using Arc, you can reduce your server costs, improve your page load times, and generate revenue by participating in Arc's pay-per-use model. However, it's important to note that Arc is still in its early stages and may not be suitable for all websites or applications. It's recommended that you test Arc thoroughly before deploying it to a production environment.
