Questions from the Developer
Start here if you want to understand what KSP is, what exists today, and what is planned next. If you want to ask something, send it here and we will answer it.
Is KSP meant to replace HTTPS?
No. KSP is an experimental application-layer protocol for learning, research, binary framing, secure handshakes, replay protection, and protocol tooling.
Can the Playground connect to a real KSP server?
Not yet. The current Playground is a pure browser simulation. It shows packet structure, handshake state, replay behavior, and benchmark estimates without opening a network connection.
What is being built next?
The KSP CLI is in development first. The target is a command-line tool for connection checks, packet testing, captures, and developer workflows.
