What is Lisk?
Established in May 2016, Lisk is an open source project focused on blockchain accessibility. Lisk's ecosystem offers everyone the opportunity to benefit from blockchain technology through developer tools, cryptocurrency wallets, and a vibrant community.
Apps Built on Lisk
The Lisk community is working on multiple proof of concept blockchain applications developed with the Lisk SDK.
Explore the Lisk SDK
Develop blockchain applications compatible with the Lisk protocol. No need to learn new languages, everything is being written in JavaScript and TypeScript.
The modular design of the Lisk SDK enables you to realize any kind of blockchain technology use-case.
const { Application, genesisBlockDevnet, configDevnet } = require('lisk-sdk');
const app = new Application(genesisBlockDevnet, configDevnet);
app
.run()
.then(() => app.logger.info('Blockchain application started...'))
.catch(error => {
console.error('Error in the application', error);
process.exit(1);
});
Official Lisk Wallets
Lisk Desktop is an all-in-one solution to manage your Lisk account, access and send tokens, or vote for delegates. It combines the functionality of a cryptocurrency wallet with the transparency of a blockchain explorer. Lisk Mobile is your lightweight version ready for on-the-go use.
