Getting started

Aragon is a project to empower freedom by making decentralized governance happen. We have built multiple pieces of infrastructure to make this happen:

  • aragonOS: A framework that enables flexible and upgradeable governance mechanisms by creating and assigning permissions to multiple entities.
  • aragon.js: A Javascript library to interact with aragonOS by handling transaction pathing, upgradeability and state of the contracts.
  • Aragon UI: An Aragon-native toolkit of UI components for decentralized apps.
  • Aragon Core (try it out): A client to interact with aragonOS-powered decentralized organizations. It implements a signer with transaction pathing, notifications and a sandboxed environment for aragonOS-based apps using aragon.js.

Although these components are very powerful together, you can use them indivually. We will explore how to do both.
