Build your complex DAPPS with.

A web app such as Uber or Twitter runs on a computer system that is owned and operated by a company that has authority over the app and its workings. No matter how many users there are, the backend is controlled by the company.

DApps can run on a P2P network or a blockchain network. For example, BitTorrent, Tor, and Popcorn Time are applications that run on computers that are part of a P2P network, which allows multiple participants to consume content, feed, or seed content.

dApps run on a blockchain network in a public, open-source decentralized environment and are free from control and interference by any single authority. For example, a developer can create a Twitter-like dApp and put it on a blockchain where any user can publish messages. Once posted, no one—not even the app creators—can delete the messages.
