- [`tributary`](./tributary) is a micro-blockchain framework. Instead of a producing a blockchain

|
|
|
|
|
embedded asynchronous task within an application.

The Serai coordinator spawns a tributary for each validator set it's coordinating. This allows
|
|
|
|
|
the participating validators to communicate in a byzantine-fault-tolerant manner (relying on
|
|
|
|
|
Tendermint for consensus).

|
|
- [`substrate`](./substrate) contains a library to index the Substrate blockchain and handle its
