2020 Q1 Hyperledger Grid
Project
Hyperledger Grid:Â https://www.hyperledger.org/projects/grid
Project Health
Health is good. Last quarter's goal was to get Grid running on another back-end platform, Splinter. Splinter is a privacy-focused platform for distributed applications that provides a blockchain-inspired networking environment for communication and transactions between organizations. It is now possible to run Grid on Splinter using experimental Splinter Docker images. This confirms a pattern for future back-end platforms that support running smart contracts with Hyperledger Transact. Community interactions are typically done via Hyperledger Chat discussions.
