<p>The Ethereum Wallet is an <a href="https://electron.atom.io/" target="about:blank">Electron</a> based desktop application to manage your Ethereum accounts and funds. Beside the usual account life-cycle operations you would expect to perform, the wallet also provides a means to send transactions from your accounts and to interact with smart contracts deployed on the network.</p>
<p>Under the hood the wallet is backed by a go-ethereum full node, meaning that a mid range machine is assumed. Similarly, synchronization is based on <strong>fast-sync</strong>, which will download all blockchain data from the network and make it available to the wallet. Light nodes cannot currently fully back the wallet, but it's a target actively pursued.</p>
<br/>
<p>To connect with the Ethereum Wallet, you'll need to initialize your private network first via Geth as the wallet does not currently support calling Geth directly. To initialize your local chain, download <a href="/{{.GethGenesis}}"><code>{{.GethGenesis}}</code></a> and run:

<p>The Mist browser is an <a href="https://electron.atom.io/" target="about:blank">Electron</a> based desktop application to load and interact with Ethereum enabled third party web DApps. Beside all the functionality provided by the Ethereum Wallet, Mist is an extended web-browser where loaded pages have access to the Ethereum network via a web3.js provider, and may also interact with users' own accounts (given proper authorization and confirmation of course).</p>

<p>Puppeth is a tool to aid you in creating a new Ethereum network down to the genesis block, bootnodes, signers, ethstats server, crypto faucet, wallet browsers, block explorer, dashboard and more; without the hassle that it would normally entail to manually configure all these services one by one.</p>

<p>Puppeth uses ssh to dial in to remote servers, and builds its network components out of docker containers using docker-compose. The user is guided through the process via a command line wizard that does the heavy lifting and topology configuration automatically behind the scenes.</p>
