Apps (Frontends)

Apps can be interfaces, widgets, tools, integrations or even standalone products that connects to the protocol and has a UI for users to interact with. While some apps can copy exisiting products and create new interfaces with localized and/or specialized features, sophisticated developers can go further and create new products altogether, building new pools and other overlays on top of the protocol’s suite of smart contracts.

In the case of bookmaker.XYZ (opens in a new tab) (a betting interface), the app instantly inherits all markets (with its underlying liquidity) that are hosted via Azuro smart contracts, and may simply focus on user acquisition and UI/UX improvements.

Apps earn a % of the profits (opens in a new tab) realized by the Pools (opens in a new tab) (from the part associated with their own users' activity). Apps will provide their addresses to allow the protocol to link it with their users' bets, allowing the LP contract (opens in a new tab) to distribute part of generated protocol revenue to the given address.

Apps have the ability to choose which markets to display on their app. They can select from the list of supported conditions live on the protocol and remove events that are not needed.
