In other words, a holochain functions very much **like a blockchain without bottlenecks** when it comes to enforcing validation rules, but is designed to be fully distributed with each node only needing to hold a small portion of the data instead of everything needing a full copy of a global ledger. This makes it feasible to run blockchain-like applications on devices as lightweight as mobile phones

## Architecture

Holochains have three main functional domains, plus whatever UI you provide to access your application. When you build a new holochain application, you need to code all of these systems.

container, communicating only by network interface.

#### 1. Authoring on your Local Chain

Your chain is your signed, sequential record of the data you create to share on the holochain. Depending on the holochain's validation rules, this data may also be immutable and non-repudiable. Your local chain/data-store follows this pattern:

#### 2. Running a DHT Node

For serving data shared across the network. When your node receives a request from another node to publish DHT data, it will first validate the signatures, chain links, and any other application specific data integrity in the entity's source chain who is publishing the data.

# Holochain Hackathon

**When:** March 6 - 8, 2017 <br />
**Where:** San Francisco, CA <br />
**How Much:** Food is provided. Some housing is available. <br />

You can contact [Matthew Schutte](http://matthewschutte.com/about/) to arrange for housing and see if there is still availability. Some people are joining us in San Francisco as early as March 3rd to help prepare.

## What are we doing at the Hackathon?
**Building distributed applications on Holochains!**

We should be able to build apps in Lisp or JavaScript by that time. So we'll be building and testing the first prototype applications on Holochains.
