Axecore Library
A pure and powerful JavaScript Axe library.
Axe is a powerful new peer-to-peer platform for the next generation of financial technology. The decentralized nature of the Axe network allows for highly resilient Axe infrastructure, and the developer community needs reliable, open-source tools to implement Axe apps and services.
