The original Tendermint implementation provided a fixed, built-in event indexer, but users would like to plug in different indexing backends. Although ADR-065 was a good first step toward customization of indexing, its implementation model does not satisfy all the user requirements. Moreover, this approach leaves some existing technical issues with indexing unsolved. This RFC documents these concerns, and discusses some potential approaches to solving them. It does _not_ propose a specific technical decision. It is meant to unify and focus some of the disparate discussions of the topic.

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?.
To get started quickly with an example application, see the quick start guide.
To learn about application development on Tendermint, see the Application Blockchain Interface.
For more details on using Tendermint, see the respective documentation for Tendermint Core, benchmarking and monitoring, and network deployments.
