NIX Desktop GUI

What is NIX?

NIX is a multi-layered privacy currency which utilizes an interoperable platform model to fuel privacy focused decentralized applications (dApps).

Key Features

• NIX utilizes a custom built privacy library that integrates Zerocoin/Stealthoutputs/Bulletproofs and TOR support. This allows transaction privacy in its fullest and most trustless form.

• NIX aims to create a privatized DEX platform built on top of already developed DEX volumes to conduct privatized atomic swaps through use of NIX’s privacy library.

• Ghost Protocol and Ghost Vault to enhance privacy features.

cd nix-gui
yarn install

Development with Electron

1. Run ng serve to start the dev server.
2. Run yarn run start:electron:dev -testnet -opendevtools to start the electron application. Daemon will be updated and launched automatically.
   • Note: this command will auto-refresh the client on each saved change
   • -testnet – for running on testnet (omit for running the client on mainnet)
   • -opendevtools – automatically opens Developer Tools on client launch

Interact with nix-core daemon

You can directly interact with the daemon ran by the Electron version.

./nix-cli -testnet getblockchaininfo
