## Overview

This is a Python peer-to-peer networking library with two terminal interfaces: one manages a local multi-node network, while the other operates a single node. Users start nodes, connect peers, ping or message them, and optionally define hyperedges for multicast; topology and hyperedge state can be saved to CSV and visualized. The excerpts show these workflows and core module references, but do not establish every internal dispatch or persistence call, so those links are omitted where evidence is insufficient.

Main entry points: [`P2P Library/network_manager.py`](https://github.com/srijanitribedi/hypergraph-based-p2p-library/blob/main/P2P%20Library/network_manager.py) (Network Manager), [`P2P Library/p2p/node.py`](https://github.com/srijanitribedi/hypergraph-based-p2p-library/blob/main/P2P%20Library/p2p/node.py) (Enhanced Node), [`P2P Library/visualize_hypergraph.py`](https://github.com/srijanitribedi/hypergraph-based-p2p-library/blob/main/P2P%20Library/visualize_hypergraph.py) (Hypergraph Visualizer), [`P2P Library/node_cli.py`](https://github.com/srijanitribedi/hypergraph-based-p2p-library/blob/main/P2P%20Library/node_cli.py) (Single-node CLI)
