Further information about Dash Core is available in the [doc folder](/doc).

|
What is Dash?
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Dash is an experimental digital currency that enables instant, private
|
|
payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Dash uses peer-to-peer technology
|
|
to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money
|
|
are carried out collectively by the network. Dash Core is the name of the open
|
|
source software which enables the use of this currency.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For more information read the original Dash whitepaper.
|
|
|
|
License
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Dash Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See [COPYING](COPYING) for more
|
|
information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.

Development Process
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
The `master` branch is meant to be stable. Development is normally done in separate branches.
|
|
[Tags](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/tags) are created to indicate new official,
|
|
stable release versions of Dash Core.
|
|
|
|
The `develop` branch is regularly built (see doc/build-*.md for instructions) and tested, but is not guaranteed to be
|
|
completely stable.
|
|
|
|
The contribution workflow is described in [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md)
|
|
and useful hints for developers can be found in [doc/developer-notes.md](doc/developer-notes.md).
|
|
|
|
Testing
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull
|
|
requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing
|
|
other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people
|
|
lots of money.
|
|
|
|
### Automated Testing
|
|
|
|
Developers are strongly encouraged to write [unit tests](src/test/README.md) for new code, and to
|
|
submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run
|
|
(assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: `make check`. Further details on running
|
|
and extending unit tests can be found in [/src/test/README.md](/src/test/README.md).
|
|
|
|
There are also [regression and integration tests](/test), written
|
|
in Python.
|
|
These tests can be run (if the [test dependencies](/test) are installed) with: `test/functional/test_runner.py`
|
|
|
|
The CI (Continuous Integration) systems make sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS,
|
|
and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.
|
|
|
|
### Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing
|
|
|
|
Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the
|
|
code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful
|
|
to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is
|
|
not straightforward.
|
|
|
|
Translations
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to
|
|
[Dash Core's Transifex page](https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/dash/).
|
|
|
|
Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the
|
|
[translation process](doc/translation_process.md) for details on how this works.
|
|
|
|
**Important**: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next
|
|
pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
