Framework Overview	An overview of the Veilid Framework	20	subpage	weight

Veilid is an open-source, peer-to-peer, mobile-first, networked application framework.

The framework is conceptually similar to IPFS and Tor, but faster and designed from the ground-up to provide all services over a privately routed network.

The framework enables development of fully-distributed applications without a 'blockchain' or a 'transactional layer' at their base.

The framework can be included as part of user-facing applications or run as a 'headless node' for power users who wish to help build the network.
