# Side BFT-CRDT PoC

This is a proof of concept implementation of a BFT-CRDT blockchain system.

## Running in development

Run the watcher first:

```bash
cd side-watcher
cargo watch -x run
```

To init a Side node:

```bash
cd side-node
cargo run -- init node1
cargo run -- init node2
cargo run -- init node3
cargo run -- init node4
```

To start a node with a cargo watch for development purposes (from the side-node dir), open up a few terminals and run:

```bash
cargo watch -x "run -- run -- node1"
cargo watch -x "run -- run -- node2"
cargo watch -x "run -- run -- node3"
cargo watch -x "run -- run -- node4"
```
