Discover DAppNode

DAppNode lowers the barrier of entry for non tech-savvy participants. It allows you to deploy, update, and manage P2P clients and nodes without leaving your browser. No terminal or command line interface.

Develop with DAppNode

DAppNode modular architecture allows any team to or project to publish a dockerized application to the DAppNode packages eco-system. Benefit from an enthusiastic crypto savvy user based and offer a user interface-only experience to lower onboarding friction.

Check out the DAppNodeSDK to learn how to get started.

Note: packages are published to Ethereum mainnet and incur costs. Given the current high gas prices the DAppNode team is willing to subsidize gas costs for packages of great interest to users.

Packages eco-system

The community and core team members have created many useful packages for users. Checkout the package explorer to browse an up-to-date list of all packages and their versions.

Champions

Champions are community members that are in charge of maintaining packages: keeping them updated and working. All packages in this list without a champion are actively looking for a champion. Join our DAppNode Discord #champion-process to suggest a package to be championed and/or offer to be a champion for a project you care about!
