gno.land

What we’re building, in a nutshell

Gno Language

A programming language designed to push the boundaries of open-source development.

Gno Virtual Machine (GnoVM/Interpreter)

A virtual machine and interpreter for running Gno, fully implemented in Go.

A smart contract blockchain, and multi-user language-based operating system powered by Gno.

Proof of Contribution

A new consensus protocol designed to acknowledge and value the efforts of those involved.

What is Gno? A Language, Virtual Machine, and Interpreter

Gno powers the next-generation decentralized, multi-user language-based operating system, providing Go developers with a suite of advanced features:

Determinism

Ensures perfect replication across different machines.
Software Transactional Memory (STM)

Allows rollback of function calls for consistency.
Auto-Persistence

Seamlessly commits and reads runtime state to and from disk.
Embeddable Functionality

Easy import of pure GoVM libraries.
Sandboxing

Secure execution of untrusted code with CPU, storage, and memory limits.
Simple Design

An intuitive reference implementation for language experiments.

How we're Using Gno

Introducing gno.land: A Web3 Open-Source Smart Contract Platform

Powered by the Gno, gno.land is set to become the leading open-source smart contract platform for succinct and composable applications. With its innovative "Proof of Contribution" design, it seeks to acknowledge and value the efforts of those involved.

You have a unique opportunity to shape the future of open-source software development with gno.land. Contribute to gno.land and make an impactful difference in its early-stage development.

Get to Gno Us @ GopherCon

Participate in the GopherCon Challenge Series

Dive into the gno.land challenges to interact with blockchain technology and see how realms (smart contracts) can be used for stateful applications without relying on a filesystem or database. Learn to leverage gno.land's features, such as deploying contracts both as an API and as importable Gno programs.
