The Livepeer project aims to deliver a live video streaming network protocol that is fully decentralized, highly scalable, crypto token incentivized, and results in a solution which can serve as the live media layer in the decentralized development (web3) stack. You can learn more about the protocol and economic incentives by reading our whitepaper.

This monorepo contains JavaScript tools and applications that interact with Livepeer's smart contracts and peer-to-peer network.
