Official Rust implementation of Golem. Golem is a network of nodes that implement the Golem Network protocol. We provide the default implementation of such a node in the form of the Golem daemon, Yagna.

Golem Network has officially gone on mainnet with the Beta I release.

Golem democratizes society’s access to computing power by creating a decentralized platform where anyone can build a variety of applications, request computational resources and/or offer their idle systems in exchange for cryptocurrency tokens (GLM). The actors in this decentralized network can assume one of the three non-exclusive roles:

• Requestor Has a need to use IT resources such as computation hardware. Those resources are purchased in the decentralized market. The actual usage of the resources is backed by Golem's decentralized infrastructure.

• Provider Has IT resources available that can be shared with other actors in the network. Those resources are sold in the decentralized market.

• Developer Builds applications to run for requestors on the network. Golem's potential goes much beyond a singular application. See Awesome Golem for just a taste of the various types of applications that can be built and run on Golem!

For a more in-depth look at how Golem works, head over to our documentation.

• agent - basic agent applications based on core services.
• core - core services for the open computation marketplace.
• exe-unit - ExeUnit Supervisor.
• service-bus - portable, rust-oriented service bus for IPC.
• test-utils - some helpers for testing purposes
• utils - trash bin for all other stuff ;)
• docs - project documentation including analysis and specifications.

The public API rust binding with data model is in the ya-client repo.

The public high-level API for Python is in yapapi repo and the JS/TS port is contained in the yaJSapi repo.

We call our runtime ExeUnit. As for now we support

• Light VM - QEMU-based ExeUnit.
• and WASM in two flavours:
  • wasmtime - Wasmtime-based ExeUnit.
  • emscripten - SpiderMonkey-based ExeUnit.

Other ExeUnit types are to come (see below).

With the MVP out, in the form of the Beta I, Grace Hopper release. The release includes:

• Clean and easy UX, most specifically during onboarding.
• GLM-centric.
• Production-ready, modular and easy to maintain architecture and code base.
  Modular means that all the building blocks can be easily replaceable.
• Documentation and SDK for developers.
• Small footprint binaries.
