How KartBlock Works?
DApp

DApp is an abbreviated term for Decentralized Application. A decentralized application has its backend code running on a decentralized peer-to- peer network. This gives DApps substantial advantage over the applications where backend code runs on centralized servers. The decentralized applications have front-end code similar to any other application where the interface is written in any language that calls to its backend. Also, these frontends can also be hosted on decentralized storage such as Swarm or IPFS.

The centralized layer of Kart Block ecosystem will govern its Android & iOS app, and its website. This layer will run over the base layer, i.e., blockchain layer. For proper functioning, maintenance, and updating of these interface systems, they are kept under the company’s control, and open-ended development will be allowed in the future.
