7.1 Design Overview
Understand Walrus architecture, encoding, and the roadmap for on- and off-chain operations.
The design section documents how Walrus works under the hood:
- Start with the objectives and use cases to learn what problems Walrus targets.
- The Overview pages describe the high-level architecture and protocol internals.
- Dive into data handling with the encoding reference and the properties Walrus guarantees.
- Operational details cover on-chain operations, off-chain coordination, and a combined operations summary.
- Finally, explore upcoming work in the future roadmap.
