How to implement a Mesh network in Android

Working on a project that should share data among 4+ devices offline. Using Google Nearby connection, we are able to establish a connection between devices via P2P-STAR topology. But what we really need is to have all devices receive and send data to all connected devices(M-N Connection).

After doing a research, Google Nearby API doesn't support mesh network so we have to build one on top of that API. But we are not able to find a good example to start with.

Any suggestion that can point us to that would be appreciated.

There is Bluetooth mesh, but this is rather for BLE beacons.

There's also Wi-Fi Direct, which is not mesh networking.
