Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
Pre-built releases need no compilation, building from source requires .NET Core and LevelDB, plus extra libraries on Linux.
This repository contains the core software you need to run a Neo blockchain node. Neo is a blockchain network (similar in concept to Bitcoin or Ethereum), and this code lets you participate in that network by running your own node, essentially a computer that stores and validates transactions. When you run a Neo node, your machine downloads a copy of the blockchain's history and stays synchronized with new transactions and blocks as they're added. This serves a few purposes: it helps secure the network by validating transactions, lets you query blockchain data without trusting a third party, and can support building blockchain applications. The repository includes two ways to interact with your node: neo-cli, a command-line interface for technical users, and neo-gui, a graphical interface for those who prefer a visual approach. Getting the node running is straightforward. The easiest path is to download a pre-built version from the releases page, extract it, and run it, no compilation needed. If you want to build it yourself from the source code, you'll need to install .NET Core (a programming framework) and a few dependencies like LevelDB for data storage, then use standard commands to compile and launch it. The README also explains how to package it in Docker, which is useful if you want to run it in a containerized environment. Most people using this would be Neo blockchain developers, validators who want to contribute to network security, or blockchain enthusiasts who prefer self-hosting over relying on public node services. The project is relatively straightforward to set up on Windows, Linux, or macOS, though Linux users need to install a couple of extra database libraries first.
