The Nym Privacy Platform
This repository contains the full Nym platform.
The platform is composed of multiple Rust crates. Top-level executable binary crates include:
- nym-mixnode - shuffles Sphinx packets together to provide privacy against network-level attackers.
- nym-client - an executable which you can build into your own applications. Use it for interacting with Nym nodes.
- nym-sfw-provider - a store-and-forward service provider. The provider acts sort of like a mailbox for mixnet messages.
- nym-validator - currently just starting development. Handles consensus ordering of transactions, mixmining, and coconut credential generation and validation.
Building
Platform build instructions are available on our docs site.
Developing
There's a .env.sample-dev file provided which you can rename to .env if you want convenient logging, backtrace, or other environment variables pre-set. The .env file is ignored so you don't need to worry about checking it in.
Developer chat
You can chat to us in Keybase. Download their chat app, then click Teams -> Join a team. Type nymtech.friends into the team name and hit continue. For general chat, hang out in the #general channel. Our development takes places in the #dev channel. Node operators should be in the #node-operators channel.
