Alexis Sellier & Eleftherios Diakomichalis: Radicle – The Decentralized Platform for Code Collaboration
About this episode
Radicle is a decentralized platform for code collaboration. It's built on Git and is an open-source decentralized alternative to platforms like GitHub. Tools like Radicle are an essential component of the decentralized technology stack and will enable DAOs to commit code through governance.
