The Motivation page give a more philosophical description and motivation of the why behind Linkspace

Linkspace is an open-source MPL-2.0 library and protocol to build event-driven applications using a distributed log with bindings for Python, JS/Wasm, and Rust.

Using a log of events as the source of truth is good design. As clear by the success of tools like Kafka and Git, and its proliferation in the backend of databases & filesystems.

Properly used: Events creation can be distributed, algorithms/structures are made to consider what network conditions they can handle, and the state becomes reproducible.

Many log systems operate behind closed walls by necessity. Each event producer must be trusted and event authenticity is implied. In linkspace, these properties are explicit.

Linkspace uses Blake3 to hash events, optionally signed with Taproot Schnorr, and can link to older events. This creates per event authenticity, that can expand, relate, and combine with other authenticity semantics required by an application.

Finally, events are partitioned by group (the set of recipients) and domain (the type of application).

The goal is to expand the log paradigm into the front-end and across organizational boundaries.

The linkspace library (and most of the tools) are available under the MPL-2.0. That means most things are allowed, such as commercial use, if you follow the terms of the license.
