dApps (short for decentralized applications) are apps that run on a blockchain instead of traditional servers. When you create a dApp, you deploy a smart contract (the logic) on-chain and then connect it with a web app (the interface). The smart contract handles the rules and transactions, while the web app gives users a familiar way to interact — like clicking buttons, filling forms, or checking balances. Instead of logging in with usernames and passwords, users connect their crypto wallet to the web app and interact directly with the blockchain. In simple terms: the smart contract is the engine, the blockchain is the road, and the web app is the steering wheel that lets people use it.

Decentralized

No single point of failure - runs on a distributed network

Transparent

All transactions and code are visible on the blockchain

Censorship Resistant

No central authority can shut them down

Global Access

Available to anyone with an internet connection
