Architecture

Glacis is a pure on-chain protocol, that means that all its components are Smart Contracts, these components can be aggregated in two groups:

• Infrastructure Components: Maintained by Glacis and deployed on each supported chain.

  • Router

  • Adapters

  • Mediators

• Client Components: Maintained by Glacis,accessible as package and deployed by user through the use of inheritance on his own contracts.

  • Clients

All components have different behavior depending if they act as a source chain component or a destination chain component.
