# Tendermint Spec
|
||||
|
||||
This repository contains specs of the current and future implementation of Tendermint the protocol, papers that have been published by the ICF or AIB and ongoing research in a variety of areas.
|
||||
|
||||
- For the pdf, see the [latest release](https://github.com/tendermint/spec/releases).
|
||||
This repository contains specifications for the Tendermint protocol. For the pdf, see the [latest release](https://github.com/tendermint/spec/releases).
|
||||
|
||||
There are currently two implementations of the Tendermint protocol,
|
||||
maintained by two separate-but-collaborative entities:
|
||||
One in [Go](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint),
|
||||
maintained by Interchain GmbH,
|
||||
and one in [Rust](https://github.com/informalsystems/tendermint-rs),
|
||||
maintained by Informal Systems.
|
||||
|
||||
There have been inadvertent divergences in the specs followed
|
||||
by the Go implementation and the Rust implementation respectively.
|
||||
However, we are worked to reconverge these specs into a single unified spec.
|
||||
Consequently, this repository is in a bit of a state of flux.
|
||||
|
||||
At the moment, the spec followed by the Go implementation
|
||||
(tendermint/tendermint) is in the [spec](spec) directory,
|
||||
while the spec followed by the Rust implementation
|
||||
(informalsystems/tendermint-rs) is in the rust-spec
|
||||
directory. TLA+ specifications are also in the rust-spec directory.
|
||||
|
||||
Over time, these specs will converge in the spec directory.
|
||||
Once they have fully converged, we will version the spec moving forward.
