Welcome

Please welcome to updated protocol documentation for Direct Connect.

This website was made for enthusiasts who develop programs that use Direct Connect protocols, either the legacy NMDC or modern ADC. The original documetation files were completed and corrected, missing protocol extensions and features added.

Today we see that there are still so many people interested in writing clients, hub softwares, hublists, pingers, bots and script. Some of them are keeping the ancient projects alive for over 25 years, all kudos to you guys!

Well, if you are one of those enthusiasts, or would like to start a new project, please feel free to navigate the menu for further instructions. On our links page you can find a great list of resources available for reading and contribution.

May the DC spirit be with you!
