- 100% federated: your code, your hardware, your data feeds, your broker fills.
- zero web: low latency, native software that doesn't try to re-invent the OS
- maximal **privacy**: prevent brokers and mms from knowing your
planz; smack their spreads with dark volume.
- zero clutter: modal, context oriented UIs that echew minimalism, reduce
thought noise and encourage un-emotion.
- first class parallelism: built from the ground up on next-gen structured concurrency
primitives.
- traders first: broker/exchange/asset-class agnostic
- systems grounded: real-time financial signal processing that will
make any queuing or DSP eng juice their shorts.
- non-tina UX: sleek, powerful keyboard driven interaction with expected use in tiling wms
- data collaboration: every process and protocol is multi-host scalable.
- fight club ready: zero interest in adoption by suits; no corporate friendly license, ever.
fitting with these tenets, we're always open to new framework suggestions and ideas.
