# Tendermint
|
|
|
|
Welcome to the Tendermint Core documentation!
|
|
|
|
Tendermint Core is a blockchain application platform; it provides the equivalent
|
|
of a web-server, database, and supporting libraries for blockchain applications
|
|
written in any programming language. Like a web-server serving web applications,
|
|
Tendermint serves blockchain applications.
|
|
|
|
More formally, Tendermint Core performs Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT)
|
|
State Machine Replication (SMR) for arbitrary deterministic, finite state machines.
|
|
For more background, see [What is
|
|
Tendermint?](introduction/what-is-tendermint.md).
|
|
|
|
To get started quickly with an example application, see the [quick start guide](introduction/quick-start.md).
|
|

|
To learn about application development on Tendermint, see the [Application Blockchain Interface](spec/abci/).
