     1  Welcome to Fabric
     2  =================
     3  
     4  Hyperledger Fabric is a platform for distributed ledger solutions, underpinned
     5  by a modular architecture delivering high degrees of confidentiality, resiliency,
     6  flexibility and scalability.  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 Fabric
    17  components and the basic transaction flow.  Once comfortable, continue
    18  exploring the library for demos, technical specifications, APIs, etc.
