Welcome
Welcome to the Zama Confidential Blockchain Protocol Docs. The docs aim to guide you to build confidential dApps on top of any L1 or L2 using Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE).
The Zama Protocol Testnet is not audited and is not intended for production use. Do not publish any critical or sensitive data. For production workloads, please wait for the Mainnet release.
Where to go next
If you're completely new to FHE or the Zama Protocol, we suggest first checking out the Litepaper, which offers a thorough overview of the protocol.
Otherwise:
🟨 Go to Quick Start to learn how to write your first confidential smart contract using FHEVM.
🟨 Go to Solidity Guides to explore how encrypted types, operations, ACLs, and other core features work in practice.
🟨 Go to Relayer SDK Guides to build a frontend that can encrypt, decrypt, and interact securely with the blockchain.
🟨 Go to FHE on Blockchain to learn the architecture in depth and understand how encrypted computation flows through both on-chain and off-chain components.
🟨 Go to Examples to find reference and inspiration from smart contract examples and and dApp examples.
