What to expect out of these docs?

Canopy documentation is a comprehensive resource that acts as a single "wiki" for all information related to Canopy. It provides insights into the "what" and "why" behind Canopy, explaining its operations and how to participate. Users can learn how to get involved by building a chain, running a node, or participating with CNPY, offering a thorough understanding of the processes involved.

The Canopy docs are a work in progress. Please check back in a few weeks. Until then, please refer to our official Go implementation of Canopy.
