_NOTE: This is alpha software. Please contact us if you intend to run it in production._
Tendermint Core is Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) middleware that takes a state transition machine - written in any programming language -
and securely replicates it on many machines.
For protocol details, see [the specification](/docs/spec).
## A Note on Production Readiness
While Tendermint is being used in production in private, permissioned
environments, we are still working actively to harden and audit it in preparation
for use in public blockchains, such as the [Cosmos Network](https://cosmos.network/).
We are also still making breaking changes to the protocol and the APIs.
Thus we tag the releases as *alpha software*.
In any case, if you intend to run Tendermint in production,
please [contact us](https://riot.im/app/#/room/#tendermint:matrix.org) :)
