Urbit is a personal server stack built from scratch. It has an identity layer (Azimuth), virtual machine (Vere), and operating system (Arvo).

A running Urbit "ship" is designed to operate with other ships peer-to-peer. Urbit is a general-purpose, peer-to-peer computer and network.

This repository contains the Arvo Kernel

For the Runtime, see Vere. For more on the identity layer, see Azimuth. To manage your Urbit identity, use Bridge.

To install and run Urbit, please follow the instructions at urbit.org/getting-started. You'll be on the live network in a few minutes.
