Relay Implementations
This is a list of all known implementations of the Nostr relay spec. You only need this if you're planning on running a relay yourself. Relays are (so far) application agnostic. You can run your own or use any or all of the public instances.

- Relayer Basic: A simple reference relay backed by Postgres, written as a demo on top of the Relayer framework for building custom relays
C++
- Stirfry: A database-less relay implementation in C++.
C#
- NNostr: A C# relay
Rust
