I am Heorhii, and I welcome you to explore the innovative world of Aleo snarkOS. As technology evolves, so do our needs for privacy, security, and decentralization. Aleo snarkOS addresses these needs by providing a robust operating system for zero-knowledge applications, revolutionizing the way we interact with the digital world. Let's dive into the intricacies of snarkOS and discover its potential to shape the future of decentralized computing.
Advantages of Aleo snarkOS:
Decentralization: snarkOS promotes decentralization by providing a robust operating system for zero-knowledge applications, ensuring that no single entity has control over the network.
Privacy: with snarkOS, transactions and state storage are encrypted, ensuring user privacy and confidentiality of sensitive data.
Security: the decentralized nature of snarkOS enhances security, making it resistant to single points of failure and malicious attacks.
Scalability: snarkOS is designed to handle a large number of transactions efficiently, allowing the network to scale seamlessly as demand increases.
Flexibility: developers have the flexibility to build a wide range of zero-knowledge applications on snarkOS, thanks to its versatile architecture and robust development tools.
Interoperability: snarkOS is compatible with various platforms and programming languages, enabling interoperability with existing systems and infrastructure.
Ease of use: despite its advanced capabilities, snarkOS is user-friendly and easy to set up, making it accessible to developers of all skill levels.
Community support: the Aleo community is active and supportive, providing resources, documentation, and assistance to developers building on snarkOS.
With these advantages, snarkOS stands as a powerful platform for building privacy-focused and decentralized applications, ushering in a new era of digital privacy and security.
https://github.com/AleoHQ/snarkOS
Build guide
Requirements: to run an Aleo node effectively, you'll need:
OS: Latest 64-bit architecture
CPU: 16-32 cores
RAM: 16-64GB
Storage: 64GB - 2TB
Network: Symmetric, high-speed
GPU: Optional for Provers
2. Installation
Before beginning, please ensure your machine has Rust v1.66+ installed. Instructions to install Rust can be found here.
https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install
Clone the repository: begin by cloning the snarkOS GitHub repository to your local machine.
git clone https://github.com/AleoHQ/snarkOS.git --depth 1
Install Dependencies: run the Ubuntu build script to install necessary dependencies.
cd snarkOS ./build_ubuntu.sh
Install snarkOS: use Cargo to install snarkOS.
cargo install --locked --path .
Ensure ports 4130/tcp and 3030/tcp are open on your router and OS firewall.
3. Run an Aleo Node: run an Aleo client
Start by following the instructions in the Build Guide.
https://github.com/AleoHQ/snarkOS#2-build-guide
Next, to start a client node, from the snarkOS directory, run:
./run-client.sh
3. Run an Aleo Node: run an Aleo Prover
Start by following the instructions in the Build Guide.
https://github.com/AleoHQ/snarkOS#2-build-guide
Next, generate an Aleo account address:
snarkos account new
This will output a new Aleo account in the terminal.
Please remember to save the account private key and view key. The following is an example output:
Attention - Remember to store this account private key and view key.
Private Key APrivateKey1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <-- Save Me And Use In The Next Step
View Key AViewKey1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <-- Save Me
Address aleo1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <-- Save Me
Next, to start a proving node, from the snarkOS directory, run:
./run-prover.sh
When prompted, enter your Aleo private key:
Enter the Aleo Prover account private key:
APrivateKey1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
4. Command Line Interface
To run a node with custom settings, refer to the options and flags available in the snarkOS CLI.
The full list of CLI flags and options can be viewed with snarkos --help:

snarkos start [OPTIONS]
OPTIONS:
--network <NETWORK_ID> Specify the network ID of this node [default: 3]
--validator Specify this node as a validator
--prover Specify this node as a prover
--client Specify this node as a client
--private-key <PRIVATE_KEY> Specify the node's account private key
--private-key-file <PRIVATE_KEY_FILE> Specify the path to a file containing the node's account private key
--node <IP:PORT> Specify the IP address and port for the node server [default: 0.0.0.0:4130]
--connect <IP:PORT> Specify the IP address and port of a peer to connect to
--rest <REST> Specify the IP address and port for the REST server [default: 0.0.0.0:3030]
--norest If the flag is set, the node will not initialize the REST server
--nodisplay If the flag is set, the node will not render the display
--verbosity <VERBOSITY_LEVEL> Specify the verbosity of the node [options: 0, 1, 2, 3] [default: 2]
--logfile <PATH> Specify the path to the file where logs will be stored [default: /tmp/snarkos.log]
--dev <NODE_ID> Enables development mode, specify a unique ID for this node
5. Development guide
Quick start:
Initialize validators, provers, and clients to kickstart development.
Utilize tmux for local devnet setup.
Toggle between nodes and manage node selection effortlessly.
Operations. It's essential to initialize nodes starting from 0 and incrementing by 1 for each new node. Use the following options to initialize a node:
cargo run --release -- start --nodisplay --dev <NODE_ID> --validator
cargo run --release -- start --nodisplay --dev <NODE_ID> --prover
cargo run --release -- start --nodisplay --dev <NODE_ID> --client
