Welcome to the Corda!
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: This build of the docs is from the *master branch*, not a milestone release. It may not reflect the
|
|
current state of the code.
|
|
|
|
This is the developer guide for Corda, a proposed architecture for distributed ledgers. Here are the sources
|
|
of documentation you may find useful, from highest level to lowest:
|
|
|
|
1. The `Introductory white paper`_ describes the motivating vision and background of the project. It is the kind
|
|
of document your boss should read. It describes why the project exists and briefly compares it to alternative
|
|
systems on the market.
|
|
2. The `Technical white paper`_ describes the entire intended design from beginning to end. It is the kind of
|
|
document that you should read, or at least, read parts of. Note that because the technical white paper
|
|
describes the intended end state, it does not always align with the implementation.
|
|
3. This user guide. It describes *how* to use the system to write apps, as currently implemented. It assumes
|
|
you already have read the relevant sections of the technology white paper and now wish to learn how to use it.
|
|
4. The `API docs`_.
