+# libp2p host example
+
+## What this does
+This example can be started in either listen mode, or dial mode.
+When running as a listener, it will sit and wait for incoming connections on
+the `/hello/1.0.0` protocol. Whenever it receives a stream, it will 
+write the message "hello libp2p" over the stream and close it.
+When run in dial mode, the node will start up, connect to the given
+address, open a stream to the target peer, and read a message on the
+protocol `/hello/1.0.0`
+
+## Building
+```
+$ go build
+```
+
+## Usage
+In one terminal:
+```
+$ ./hosts -l 4737
+```
+
+In another, copy the address printed by the listener and do:
+
+```
+$ ./hosts -d ADDRESS
+```
+
