AppLayer is a modular EVM layer for cross-chain applications.
The AppLayer Network is made up of three parts:
- A Blockchain Development Kit (hereby denominated BDK), with extensive documentation for developers to easily build their own AppLayer's with unprecedented freedom;
- An EVM network built on top of the Blockchain Development Kit which enables builders to deploy EVM smart contracts and scale with C++ stateful pre-compiles;
- A network that allows the bridging of data and assets between these app-specific chains and external chains - we call it the Chain Abstraction Network (CAN).
Therefore, blockchains built using the BDK are able to communicate with each other through AppLayer.
