What it does

"Scalable distributed apps with data integrity"

Holochain delivers beyond the promises of blockchain by providing a lightweight, secure and versatile framework for everyday distributed apps.

Holochain gives digital agency to organizations, markets, and people. By combining cryptography, distributed databases, and consensus-free validation—new social magic is possible. Holochain is a chain like no other: simultaneously a validated onchain experience, and a fully distributed peer-to-peer application framework. This makes Holochain unique in the world of software and distributed networks. Here are a few building blocks that demonstrate what is possible. The Holochain ecosystem is a really fun and exciting place to explore the possibilities and impact of fully distributed, scalable, and peer-to-peer applications! The best apps of the 21st century will be built on Holochain.…from holochain.org

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
