Avahi is the name of an open-source software suite that implements the
“Zeroconf” protocol suite <https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Avahi>.
Zeroconf was created several decades ago by an Apple engineer named Stuart
Cheshire, as a way to make TCP/IP behave more like the AppleTalk of yore,
where you could just plug new machines into your LAN and turn them on, and
they would Just Work™, with Zero Configuration™ (see what I did there?).
