aelf is an open blockchain network designed as a complete business solution. aelf's structure consists of a main chain and multiple side chains, allowing developers to implement decentralized applications (dApps) on individual side chains and achieve resource isolation. aelf uses parallel processing and the AEDPoS (Authority Equilibrium Delegated Proof of Stake) consensus mechanism.
In addition to the technical aspect, aelf also offers various governance models to meet the needs of different applications. These include a parliamentary, an association, and a referendum governance model. Through an incentive model, the network has a self-sustaining system and can engage in practical self-development.
Furthermore, developers can debug, develop, and deploy applications using a mature IDE (Integrated Development Environment) provided by aelf. This positions aelf as a comprehensive blockchain solution for businesses and developers.
