Learn Orivon, use it, build on it.

Orivon is a browser built for owning: apps open from a link, ask for what they need in plain words, and run with names and content verified on your machine. These pages explain how it works and how to build for it.

How Orivon works

From a link to a running app in four steps. Each one has its own page.

  1. 1
    Open a name

    Type a .eth name or follow a link. The app is an ordinary web page at an address.

  2. 2
    It is proven

    A light client on your machine checks the name, and every block is hashed against its CID.

  3. 3
    You decide, once

    The app lists what it needs. You read it in plain words and choose.

  4. 4
    It runs

    Upstream code, in your tab, holding only what you granted. Next time, from your disk.

Element asking, in plain words, for network access, the camera, the microphone and screen sharing before it runs
Step 3: one question, in plain words, before an app runs.
