The goal of Pancakes is to provide an overview as well as open source examples for individual software developers and companies. It includes well structured documentation and serves as a reference for the development of reliable smart contracts.

The smart contract examples are based on best practices of blockchain infrastructure use cases.

Documentation includes curated resources, libraries, tools and more for the creation of smart contracts. Step-by-step instructions, images and screenshots will be part of the documentation.

What is a Smart Contract?

“A smart contract is a computer protocol intended to digitally facilitate, verify, or enforce the negotiation or performance of a contract. Smart contracts allow the performance of credible transactions without third parties. These transactions are trackable and irreversible.”

— Wikipedia

"New institutions, and new ways to formalize the relationships that make up these institutions, are now made possible by the digital revolution. I call these new contracts "smart", because they are far more functional than their inanimate paper-based ancestors. No use of artificial intelligence is implied. A smart contract is a set of promises, specified in digital form, including protocols within which the parties perform on these promises."

— Nick Szabo, 1996
