The Luxcore Project is a decentralized peer-to-peer banking financial platform, created under an open source license, featuring a built-in cryptocurrency, end-to-end encrypted messaging and decentralized marketplace. The decentralized network aims to provide anonymity and privacy for everyone through a simple user-friendly interface by taking care of all the advanced cryptography in the background.
The luxgate allow for communications among validated blockchain with the ability to perform tasks and advanced functions. Through the use of pmn, lux is able to interact many other popular blockchains and create a unifying bond among those ecosystems.
Lux doesnt provide direct support for dapp database. Instead, a mechanism to interact with other blockchain via luxgate function where other blockchain can send and recieve trigger function notices and international data through the lux network via pmn and luxgate. Pmn & luxgate can also be used to interact with the centralised services such as banker. Those centralism service can connect to the lux network for specific trigger of the luxgate via pmn. It will allow for their developed autonomous system to act base on their behalf. The pmn will then be developed by the connecting blockchain developer. Luxcore will have to supply a deployment guide to assist their developer. In other to assist the centralised services, lux will need to provide a centralised trustworthy environments. So user have their trusted oversight to verify that the transactions are legitmate
In addition, without luxgate and pmn, bitcoin and ethereum cannot interact with each other on the same blockchain because of the technology is incompatible, it almost impossible before our pmn and luxgate functions implemented. Therefore, we have to introduce a smartcontract & segwit features in the next release to verify that we succeed to combine those different technology together to create a brand new unique features of LUX

The commands in this guide should be executed in a Terminal application.
The built-in one is located in /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app
.
Install the OS X command line tools:
xcode-select --install
When the popup appears, click Install
.
Then install Homebrew.
brew install cmake automake berkeley-db4 libtool boost --c++11 --without-single --without-static miniupnpc openssl pkg-config protobuf qt5 libevent imagemagick --with-librsvg
NOTE: Building with Qt4 is still supported, however, could result in a broken UI. Building with Qt5 is recommended.
-
Clone the Lux source code and cd into
Lux
git clone --recursive https://github.com/Lux-core/lux.git cd Lux
-
Build Luxcore:
Configure and build the headless Lux binaries as well as the GUI (if Qt is found).
You can disable the GUI build by passing
--without-gui
to configure../autogen.sh ./configure make
-
It is recommended to build and run the unit tests:
make check
Then you can either run the command-line daemon using src/Luxd
and src/Lux-cli
, or you can run the Qt GUI using src/qt/Lux-qt
For in-depth description of Sparknet and how to use Lux for interacting with contracts, please see sparknet-guide.

The master
branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be
completely stable. Tags are created
regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of Lux.
The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md.
Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to
submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run
(assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check
. Further details on running
and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.
There are also regression and integration tests of the RPC interface, written
in Python, that are run automatically on the build server.
These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: qa/pull-tester/rpc-tests.py
Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.
