SDK Overview

Lux Consensus provides native SDKs in multiple programming languages, each optimized for its ecosystem while maintaining 100% protocol compatibility.

The reference implementation, used in production blockchain nodes.

import "github.com/luxfi/consensus/engine/core"

engine := core.NewChain(core.DefaultConfig())

Status: ✅ Production Ready
Test Coverage: 74.5%
Documentation: Go SDK

High-performance native library for embedded systems and performance-critical applications.

#include <lux_consensus.h>

lux_engine_t* engine = lux_create_engine(&config);

Status: ✅ Production Ready
Tests: 33/33 passing (100%)
Documentation: C SDK

Memory-safe implementation with zero-cost abstractions.

use lux_consensus::{Engine, Config};

let engine = Engine::new(Config::default())?;

Status: ✅ Production Ready
Tests: 4/4 passing (100%)
Documentation: Rust SDK

Pythonic API for rapid prototyping and research.

from lux_consensus import Engine, Config

engine = Engine(Config())

Status: 🔬 Research
Test Suite: 674 LOC
Documentation: Python SDK

GPU-accelerated implementation for Apple Silicon.

#include <lux/consensus.hpp>

auto engine = lux::Engine(config);

Status: 🚧 Development
Platform: Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3)
