Substrate Framework
Substrate is a modular blockchain development framework created by Parity Technologies. It provides a flexible foundation for building custom blockchains without having to implement every component from scratch.
Key benefits of Substrate for Hippius:
- Modularity: Customizable runtime modules (pallets) for specific functionality
- Upgradability: Forkless runtime upgrades via on-chain governance
- Performance: Efficient, lightweight client with WebAssembly execution
- Flexibility: Adaptable to various consensus mechanisms and network designs
Hippius leverages Substrate's architecture to deliver a specialized blockchain optimized for decentralized storage and compute services.
