<div class="focus-text">
|
|
Veilid is an open-source, peer-to-peer, mobile-first, networked application framework.
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
The framework is conceptually similar to <a href="https://ipfs.tech/">IPFS</a> and <a href="https://www.torproject.org/">Tor</a>, 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.
