Learn About Sui |
Sui: pronounced "sweet" without the "T" - with Transactions (loads of them), things are SWEET indeed. :-)
Welcome to the documentation for the Sui platform. Sui is built on the core Move programming language. This documentation assumes that you have a basic working knowledge of Move. To learn more about the differences between core Move and Sui Move, see How Sui Move differs from core Move.
For a deep dive into Sui technology, see the Sui Smart Contracts Platform white paper. Find answers to common questions about our roadmap and more in our FAQ.
This site is available in two versions. You can choose which version to view using the drop-down menu at top left.
- Devnet reflects the stable
devnet
branch of the repo. Use the Devnet version of the docs if you build or test with thedevnet
branch of the repo. - Latest build reflects the
main
branch of the repo. Themain
branch includes the most recent updates we've made to the documentation. Themain
branch includes updates not yet merged into thedevnet
branch.
When Sui releases a new feature, or change to an existing feature, to the devnet
branch, the documentation in the Devnet version may not reflect the associated updates for a few days after the release. You can see the associated updates in the Latest build version in the interim.
Check for the latest release of Sui, including Release Notes, on the Sui Releases page.
We list changes and updates to the documentation in the Sui documentation updates topic.
