|
||||
[State Machine Replication](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_machine_replication).

Or [Blockchain](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockchain_(database)) for short.

## JSON Encoding
|
||||
Tendermint Core is Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) middleware that takes a state transition machine - written in any programming language -
|
||||
and securely replicates it on many machines.
|
||||
|
||||
go-crypto `.Bytes()` uses Amino:binary encoding, but Amino:JSON is also supported.
|
||||
For protocol details, see [the specification](/docs/spec).
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
Example Amino:JSON encodings:

```
|
||||
While Tendermint is being used in production in private, permissioned
|
||||
environments, we are still working actively to harden and audit it in preparation
|
||||
for use in public blockchains, such as the [Cosmos Network](https://cosmos.network/).
|
||||
We are also still making breaking changes to the protocol and the APIs.
|
||||
Thus we tag the releases as *alpha software*.
|
||||
|
||||
In any case, if you intend to run Tendermint in production,
|
||||
please [contact us](https://riot.im/app/#/room/#tendermint:matrix.org) :)

|

Yay open source! Please see our [contributing guidelines](CONTRIBUTING.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Versioning
|
||||
|
||||
### SemVer
|
||||
|
||||
Tendermint uses [SemVer](http://semver.org/) to determine when and how the version changes.
|
||||
According to SemVer, anything in the public API can change at any time before version 1.0.0
|
||||
|
||||
To provide some stability to Tendermint users in these 0.X.X days, the MINOR version is used
|
||||
to signal breaking changes across a subset of the total public API. This subset includes all
|
||||
interfaces exposed to other processes (cli, rpc, p2p, etc.), but does not
|
||||
include the in-process Go APIs.
|
||||
|
||||
That said, breaking changes in the following packages will be documented in the
|
||||
CHANGELOG even if they don't lead to MINOR version bumps:
|
||||
|
||||
- types
|
||||
- rpc/client
|
||||
- config
|
||||
- node
|
||||
|
||||
Exported objects in these packages that are not covered by the versioning scheme
|
||||
are explicitly marked by `// UNSTABLE` in their go doc comment and may change at any time.
|
||||
Functions, types, and values in any other package may also change at any time.
|
||||
|
||||
### Upgrades
|
||||
|
||||
In an effort to avoid accumulating technical debt prior to 1.0.0,
|
||||
we do not guarantee that breaking changes (ie. bumps in the MINOR version)
|
||||
will work with existing tendermint blockchains. In these cases you will
|
||||
have to start a new blockchain, or write something custom to get the old
|
||||
data into the new chain.
|
||||
|
||||
However, any bump in the PATCH version should be compatible with existing histories
|
||||
(if not please open an [issue](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/issues)).

||||
