Elders is the thinest of all Tribe Apps and therefore ideal for mobile devices. In contrast to the Wanderer, the Elders has a reduced (less stressful) UI and implemented feature set. It is optimized for Users likely to stay within a single Tribe at a time.

Local Discovery or also called LAN peer discovery is the ability to automatically locate peers within a local area network (LAN) and connect them with each other.
A Peer, sometimes also called Node or Client is a member of a NetGroup, a Tribe or Lodge mesh.
A P2P Network, Mesh or NetGroup is the compound structure of peers.
It's a topology used to organize nodes into a network, so they can transmit data between each
other.
There is a path between every peer in a NetGroup. There may not be a direct
connection between two peers, but there is always a path through other peers.
In contrasts to a client-server model, there is no central server dealing with all kinds of
stuff.
E.g. data does not need to be sent to the server to be distributed to each client.
Tribe is meant to be a space for keeping a group of things
connected
and allow them to interact with each other without restrictions.
Things can be literally just anything. You can just link up your devices,
keep your family connected, people with same interests, ... it't just limited by
your imagination.
Lodges are simply subgroups within a Tribe but only accessible
via the gate of a Tribe,
otherwise they have the same functionality.
A Tribe Uri is similar to what you usually enter in your web
browser's address field navigating to a website.
Tribe has its own style. It looks something like that:
tribe://tribe-server.cokkoc.com/?GS=...
To allow others to join your Tribe you usually share your Tribe's uri.
