.me URI Scheme (v1)

📰 Medium · Programming

Learn about the .me URI Scheme, a semantic, sovereign, and distributed addressing protocol for personal identity and mesh networks, and how to use it to address resources in a decentralized manner

intermediate Published 12 Apr 2026

Action Steps

Understand the main scheme of the .me URI: me://[namespace][selector]/[path]
Define the namespace to represent the canonical identity
Use the selector to define how to resolve the expression in the mesh, such as targeting a specific surface or broadcasting to all surfaces
Specify the path to address a specific resource, such as a profile or a chat room
Test the .me URI Scheme with official examples, such as me://jabellae.cleaker.me/profile or me://jabellae.cleaker.me[surface:iphone]/runtime.battery

Who Needs to Know This

Developers and engineers working on decentralized systems, mesh networks, and personal identity management can benefit from understanding the .me URI Scheme to design and implement more efficient and secure addressing protocols

Key Insight

💡 The .me URI Scheme provides a flexible and secure way to address resources in a decentralized manner, enabling new use cases for personal identity and mesh networks
