It is designed to support pluggable implementations 7 of different components, and accommodate the complexity and intricacies that exist 8 across the economic ecosystem. 9 10 Hyperledger Fabric delivers a uniquely elastic and extensible architecture, 11 distinguishing it from alternative blockchain solutions. Planning for the 12 future of enterprise blockchain requires building on top of a fully-vetted, 13 open source architecture; Hyperledger Fabric is your starting point. 14 15 It's recommended for first-time users to begin by going through the 16 :doc:`getting_started` section in order to gain familiarity with the Hyperledger Fabric 17 components and the basic transaction flow. Once comfortable, continue 18 exploring the library for demos, technical specifications, APIs, etc. 19 20 Before diving in, watch how Hyperledger Fabric is Building a Blockchain for 21 Business: 22 23 .. raw:: html 24 25 <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/EKa5Gh9whgU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> 26 <br/><br/> 27 28 .. toctree:: 29 :maxdepth: 2 30 :caption: Getting Started 31 32 prereqs 33 getting_started 34 samples 35 36 .. toctree:: 37 :maxdepth: 2 38 :caption: Key Concepts 39 40 blockchain 41 capabilities 42 fabric_model 43 usecases 44 45 .. toctree:: 46 :maxdepth: 2 47 :caption: Tutorials 48 49 build_network 50 write_first_app 51 chaincode 52 chaincode4ade 53 chaincode4noah 54 videos 55 56 .. toctree:: 57 :maxdepth: 2 58 :caption: Operations Guide 59 60 best_practices 61 msp 62 configtx 63 configtxgen 64 configtxlator 65 cc-packaging-and-signing 66 endorsement-policies 67 error-handling 68 logging-control 69 70 .. toctree:: 71 :maxdepth: 2 72 :caption: Architecture 73 74 arch-deep-dive 75 txflow 76 Hyperledger Fabric CA's User Guide <http://hyperledger-fabric-ca.readthedocs.io/en/latest> 77 fabric-sdks 78 kafka 79 channels 80 ledger 81 readwrite 82 gossip 83 84 .. toctree:: 85 :maxdepth: 2 86 :caption: Troubleshooting and FAQs 87 88 Fabric-FAQ 89 90 .. toctree:: 91 :maxdepth: 2 92 :caption: Contributing 93 94 CONTRIBUTING 95 MAINTAINERS 96 jira_navigation 97 dev-setup/devenv 98 dev-setup/build 99 Gerrit/lf-account 100 Gerrit/gerrit 101 Gerrit/changes 102 Gerrit/reviewing 103 Gerrit/best-practices 104 testing 105 Style-guides/go-style 106 107 .. toctree:: 108 :maxdepth: 2 109 :caption: Appendix 110 111 glossary 112 releases 113 questions 114 status 115 116 ..
