Holochain

Holochain is an end-to-end open source P2P app framework that gives digital agency to organizations, markets, and people. By combining cryptography, distributed databases, and consensus-free validation, it enables new forms of coordination and collaboration. Holochain provides an open-source framework for building fully distributed, peer-to-peer applications. It aims to give digital agency to organizations and individuals by using an agent-centric approach where users control their own data, contrasting with server-based or traditional blockchain models. It is described as a combination of BitTorrent, Git, and cryptographic signatures, designed for creating scalable and resilient everyday apps.

Description

Holochain is an open‑source framework for building peer‑to‑peer applications that runs on an “agent‑centric” model rather than traditional consensus blockchains. It provides tools and libraries for developers to create distributed apps (hApps) where each user stores their own chain and data is shared via a distributed hash table. The platform emphasises scalability, data ownership, and resilience without relying on global consensus mechanisms.
