Welcome

Welcome to our network guide website. Here, you’ll find all the necessary guides for setting up a developer network, a private test network, or a network for benchmarking purposes.

Run Examples

Once a network and up and running, you can start to interact with it. Arcology is EVM-equivalent, interacting with an Arcology node is indistinguishable from that of standard Ethereum. Developers may continue using Ethereum toolchains on Arcology.

Arcology’s key feature is parallel transaction execution, provided contracts involved don't have shared state. However, many contracts do have shared state and cannot fully benefit from parallel execution.

In Arcology', a parallelized contract is a contention-free contract that can be called concurrently without causing any access conflicts.

Arcology offers a set of concurrent APIs in Solidity to help developers parallelize their contracts, enabling them to be processed fully in parallel. The examples below help developers understand how this works, with all examples wrapped in Hardhat projects.

Parallelized Eth Examples
