Parity Substrate is a blockchain development framework with many cool features like upgradable blockchains, modular architecture, customizable block execution logic, and hot-swappable consensus. This article is about how you can get started with the Substrate framework to build your own blockchain.

Some time ago, Gavin Wood asked me to investigate the possibility of implementing a UTXO chain based on Substrate, a new promising blockchain framework made by Parity Technologies that is now used as

At Parity, we are currently focused on developing three main technologies: Parity Ethereum (Eth 1.0 as well as Serenity), Parity Substrate, and the Web3 Foundation’s project, Polkadot. Ultimately, our goal with

If you have been following the development of Polkadot, Ethereum 2.0 or Substrate, you may have heard of libp2p. Libp2p is a network framework that allows you to write decentralized peer-to-peer applications.

Substrate 1.0 Beta is out now, opening the door to a radical acceleration in blockchain and decentralised application development. Substrate is an open-source technology stack that makes it easy to create a

At the Web3 Summit in Berlin, Parity Technologies founder Gavin Wood demoed launching a blockchain in under 60 minutes on a brand new laptop, announcing the November 2018 release of Substrate 1.0-beta.

As Substrate nears its official beta release, Gavin Wood has quietly launched an open testnet for developers to start getting familiar with the next-generation framework for blockchain innovators. Substrate will be an easy

Substrate is a library that you can use to build your own custom blockchain. Substrate provides the basis for Polkadot.

As announced earlier this year, Parity Technologies enlisted Trail of Bits, a top-tier security auditing firm specialising in smart contract security, Rust, and Solidity, to review our codebase. The scope of the audit

Just as most web applications shouldn't need to reimplement their own version of HTTP, we believe that it's wasted effort for every team creating a new blockchain to have to implement all the networking and consensus code from scratch.
