Overview

Welcome to the HOPR RFC Repository (hopr-rfc), the central hub for managing, discussing, and finalising Request for Comments (RFCs) related to the HOPR project. Each RFC resides in its own repository within this organisation, promoting modularity and clear documentation.

RFCs define the core HOPR protocol, its interfaces, and related smart contract specifications. This repository serves as an index and guide for navigating all individual RFC repositories.

Repository Structure

Each RFC will have its own dedicated repository to ensure modularity, easy management, and independent versioning. This structure allows for storing associated assets such as images, diagrams, and relevant files within each RFC repository.
