# Tendermint

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 more background, see the [introduction](https://tendermint.com/intro).

To get started developing applications, see the [application developers guide](https://tendermint.com/docs/guides/app-development).

# How to use this image

## Start one instance of the Tendermint core with the `dummy` app

A very simple example of a built-in app and Tendermint core in one container.

```
docker run -it --rm -v "/tmp:/tendermint" tendermint/tendermint init
docker run -it --rm -v "/tmp:/tendermint" tendermint/tendermint
```

## mintnet-kubernetes

If you want to see many containers talking to each other, consider using [mintnet-kubernetes](https://github.com/tendermint/mintnet-kubernetes), which is a tool for running Tendermint-based applications on a Kubernetes cluster.
