I see various federated applications (peertube, funkwhale, etc.) that seem to run on the same plumbing as Mastodon and I’m wondering if there is a “starter kit” or good reference example for writing something like this.

I had an idea the other day for a new federated application (which i subsequently forgot, but it will come back to me) and it would be cool to not to have to start from scratch.

Python preferred but I could do JavaScript/node or something else if need be.
