How it works

Sonr is a combination of decentralized primitives. Fundamentally, it is a peer-to-peer identity and asset management system that leverages DID documents, Webauthn, and IPFS — providing users with a secure, portable decentralized identity.

Sonr is built on top of the Cosmos SDK, which is a framework for building blockchain applications in Golang. We use these modules:

• x/auth
• x/bank
• x/distribution
• x/ibc
• x/ibc/applications/transfer
• x/gov
• x/params
• x/slashing
• x/staking
• x/upgrade
• x/wasm

Architecture

Sonr is a blockchain node which you can run locally, or use to join our testnet. You can sign up and start using Sonr without installing anything using our dashboard.

See additional details on these components.

Client libraries

Our approach for client libraries is uniform. Abstract away any blockchain specific details, and provide a simple interface for developers to use. We have a few client libraries that we maintain, and provide guidelines for community maintained libraries.
