A simple blockchain written from scratch in the rust programming language. This is a very simple protocol for me to reseach about how the functioning of a blockchain system works. Hoping to make this reachable to the people who are beginners in blockchain and web3 learn about what goes on under the hood of a chain. Follow the detailed documentatation to know more.
Note I'm working on the architecture of user accounts using asymmetric encryption.
- Rust and rocket.rs as chain and backend
- Nextjs and mantine for client
- MDX for documentation
- Make sure to have rust and nodejs installed.
- Clone the repo
cdinto thenight_protocolfolder and runcargo run- open another terminal instance and
cdinto theclientfolder and runyarn && yarn run dev - Alternatively, you can only run the rust server and visit https://night-protocol.netlify.app to set it up.
It has 2 chains for now, the transaction chain and the master chain. When there are more than 100 blocks in the transaction chain, all of them are compressed and sent to a block in the master chain. I implemented this algorithm to make the validations faster. Its not peer to peer, but has all the characteristics of a normal chain. You can make transactions and also hopefully play a gambling game in the chain. I'm trying to make the multiple wallet system for now because currently it has support for only one wallet.
