Bitgreen Desktop is our feature-rich flagship client, recommended for most users for interacting with Bitgreen network.

We provide a decentralized privacy platform with a suite of tools to enhance your online privacy:

• An anonymous cryptocurrency – send and receive the PART cryptocurrency without revealing the transaction history
• End-to-end encrypted messaging – communicate in a secure and decentralized manner without revealing your IP address
• A private marketplace – buy and sell goods without leaving a trace (WIP on market branch)
• Community governance – anyone can submit proposals to Bitgreen network via decentralized voting & governance (WIP on market branch)

This repository is the user interface that works in combination with our bitgreen-core.

For contributing to Bitgreen Desktop, please read our Contributing Guidelines first.

• Node.js® 6.4—7.10
• git

git clone https://github.com/bitgreen/bitgreen-desktop cd bitgreen-desktop yarn install

Note: most recent development happens on market branch

1. Run ng serve to start the dev server and keep it running
2. In another terminal window, run yarn run start:electron:dev -testnet --devtools to start Bitgreen Desktop on testnet (daemon will be updated and launched automatically)
   • -testnet – for running on testnet (omit for running the client on mainnet)
   • -reindex – reindexes the blockchain (in case you're stuck)
   • --devtools – automatically opens Developer Tools on client launch

You can directly interact with the daemon ran by the Electron version.

./bitgreen-cli -testnet getblockchaininfo 

Building for Windows requires the 32-bit libraries to be available:

sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib sudo apt-get install g++-multilib 

• yarn run package:win – Windows
• yarn run package:mac – macOS
• yarn run package:linux – Linux

Restart the app with -reindex flag:

yarn run start:electron:dev -testnet --devtools -reindex
