Fractal
Welcome to the Fractal source code repository!
What is Fractal?
Fractal is a high-level blockchain framework that can implement the issuance, circulation, and dividends of tokens efficiently and reliably. Fractal can also steadily implement various community governance functions with voting as the core and foundation. These functions are the foundation for building the token economy of future.

The fractal project comes with several wrappers/executables found in the cmd directory.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
ft |
Our main fractal CLI client. It is the entry point into the fractal network (main-, test- or private net), It can be used by other processes as a gateway into the fractal network via JSON RPC endpoints exposed on top of HTTP, WebSocket and/or IPC transports. ft -h and the Command Line Options for command line options. |
ftfinder |
ftfinder is a fractal node discoverer.ftfinder -h and the Command Line Options for command line options. |
Getting Started
The following instructions overview the process of getting the code, building it, and start node.
