Startups, Learning and Commercial Applications

The primary purpose of the ARK Deployer is to enable users to quickly create their own blockchain following simple instructions using their Deployer CLI. Anyone with some basic technical knowledge can have their own blockchain up and running within less than 30 minutes.

The ARK Deployer will come in handy for anyone who desires to create a custom-made blockchain based on the ARK technology. The application is appropriate for users who want to create their own blockchains for startups, commercial applications or learning purposes.   

According to the ARK roadmap, the new version is not limited to a single bridge chain network like the previous versions and it creates instances for a user’s main chain besides test networks giving them a fully customizable environment setup for bridge chain development. Users can now have a solid foundation for new projects or ideas besides the ability to create applications on already established networks.

Enable Younger Children

The newly launched platform, which has been in the works for the last few months, provides a solid base blockchain environment for new projects while enabling users to focus on application developments. The platform will even enable younger children to deploy their own blockchains and be able to issue currency, play games, and cards besides learning how to handle value. Commenting about the development, the ARK team stated:

“The ARK Deployer revolutionizes a previously lengthy and complex process, and significantly reduces the barriers to entry of blockchain technology […] the intuitive user interface means that anyone, regardless of their technical experience or background, can build, customize and deploy their own blockchain by utilizing an easy-to-follow tool.”

Earlier this month, Blockchain Reporter reported that ARK was accepted into the Google Season of Docs Program, becoming one of only 50 other projects accepted and was the only blockchain platform to join the prestigious list during its inaugural year.
