| The **Polygon Chain Development Kit (CDK)** is a modular, open-source toolkit for building highly customizable Ethereum-compatible layer 2s. Designed to empower developers to build for their use case, CDK enables the deployment of Layer 2 solutions optimized for performance, security, and cost-efficiency. | ||
| # Overview | ||
|
|
||
| ## Flexible Configurations | ||
| The **Polygon Chain Development Kit (CDK)** is a modular, open-source framework for building custom Layer 2 (L2) chains tailored to any use case. With **Polygon CDK**, developers can configure and deploy scalable, Ethereum-compatible chains using cutting-edge zk and aggregated blockchain technology. | ||
|
|
||
| Polygon CDK supports a range of configurations, enabling developers to customize their Layer 2 to specific needs: | ||
| - **Rollup Configurations:** Fully secured by Ethereum using zero-knowledge proofs for trustless scalability and decentralization. | ||
| - **Validium Configurations:** Utilize off-chain data availability for reduced costs and higher throughput. | ||
| - **Agglayer Native Configurations:** Cost-optimized setups natively connected to the Agglayer and secured by pessimistic proofs. These configurations offer a lightweight, affordable option with ecosystem-level security. | ||
| ## Key Configurations | ||
|
|
||
| ## Key Advantages | ||
| Polygon CDK enables flexible deployment options, including: | ||
| - **Rollup Configurations**: Maximize security by leveraging on-chain data availability. | ||
| - **Validium Configurations**: Optimize scalability with off-chain data availability. | ||
| - **Agglayer Native Configuration**: A cost-effective, performance-driven configuration connected to the Agglayer, secured by **pessimistic proofs**. Ideal for projects requiring independent operations with unified liquidity. | ||
|
|
||
| Polygon CDK provides the essential components to build Layer 2 solutions that are secure, scalable, and interoperable with other chains. | ||
| This modular design ensures projects can scale securely, minimize costs, and deliver high performance while maintaining full customization. | ||
|
|
||
| - **Security:** CDK builds highly secure L2 solutions using the latest innovations in zero-knowledge technology and pessimistic proofs. | ||
| - **High Performance:** CDK integrates fast-syncing Erigon clients and the battle-tested Polygon zkEVM protocol for scalable, low-latency operations. | ||
| - **Modularity:** CDK’s modular architecture allows developers to easily customize their environment, including finality mechanisms, proving systems, and economic policies. | ||
| - **Interoperability:** Opt-in to the [Agglayer](../agglayer/overview.md) to bootstrap your chain’s ecosystem, enable cross-chain transactions, and expand your reach, user base, and liquidity from other established chains. | ||
| - **Cost Efficiency:** Agglayer native configurations provide low-cost options with reduced gas fees and fast transaction processing, making them ideal for budget-conscious projects. | ||
| ## Why Choose Polygon CDK? | ||
