A brief <strong class="highlight">history</strong> of the Radicle project.
+
+ 
### January, 2018
+
+ 
Berlin-based **Monadic GmbH** is founded by [Eleftherios Diakomichalis][ed] and
+ 
[Alexis Sellier][as] a.k.a cloudhead to pursue the vision of a sovereign
+ 
developer stack.
+
+ 
### February, 2019
+
+ 
Radicle, a code collaboration platform launches in *alpha*. The initial version
+ 
of Radicle is built on [IPFS][ipfs].
+
+ 
### October, 2019
+
+ 
Development on the second generation of the Radicle protocol, **Radicle Link**
+ 
starts.
+
+ 
### June, 2020
+
+ 
The Radicle Foundation is established. A Swiss non-profit that oversees the
+ 
development of the project.
+
+ 
### December, 2020
+
+ 
The **Radicle Upstream** desktop client is released, based on the new Radicle
+ 
Link protocol.
+
+ 
The Link protocol is modeled around [Secure Scuttlebut][ssb] and uses Git under
+ 
the hood for replication. IPFS is [no longer][689] used.
+
+ 
### January 2021
+
+ 
Development of Radicle moves to the Radicle Foundation, funded by the
+ 
[Radworks][radworks] organization.
+
+ 
### February, 2022
+
+ 
Radicle launches a new [web client][web] based on the Radicle Link protocol.
+
+ 
### July, 2022
+
+ 
The Radicle team starts working on the third generation of its protocol,
+ 
called [Heartwood][heartwood].
+
+ 
Upstream is sunset in favor of the web client which transitions to the
+ 
Heartwood protocol.
+
+ 
### January, 2023
+
+ 
Radicle becomes self-hosted: development of the Radicle stack moves to Radicle.
+
+ 
### March, 2024
+
+ 
Radicle gears up for it's 1.0 RC1 release.
