In our documentation you will find:
- Dedicated pages for each of the Rubicon smart contracts (e.g. RubiconMarket) with an outline of key functions and parameters for each respective contract
What is Rubicon?
Rubicon is an order book protocol for Ethereum, which makes it an order book protocol for the world! Use it to swap tokens, trade with limit & market orders, or earn by providing liquidity in Rubicon Pools. Try it today on the Rubicon app
⬅
Rubicon is built on Ethereum L2 networks to give traders cheap transactions (<$1) and near-instant trade confirmations. Rubicon v1 markets are live today on Optimism and will be on more L2 networks soon!

Rubicon v1 Protocol Overview
The cornerstone of the Rubicon protocol is the RubiconMarket contract, which implements order books for the peer-to-peer trading of ERC-20 tokens.
Rubicon Pools are the native liquidity pools of the Rubicon order books. Pools is a system of smart contracts that enables passive liquidity providers (LPs) to deposit tokens in a pool, where active liquidity managers (strategists) use pool assets to make markets on the order books. Yield from market-making goes to LPs, and strategists earn a performance fee.

Rubicon v1 Architecture
Developers: Start Rubicon Protocol Locally
1
$ git clone https://www.github.com/RubiconDeFi/rubicon_protocol.git
2
$ cd rubicon_protocol && npm i
3
$ npm i --save-dev [email protected]
4
$ truffle init
5
$ 'n' for overwriting contracts
6
$ 'n' for overwriting migrations
7
$ (in separate terminal) ganache-cli
Copied!
Also make sure that you comment out the lines in truffle-config.js that say 'development: ' and include localhost under networks so that you can connect to Ganache.
1
$ truffle migrate -- deploys contracts to development network, i.e. localhost
2
$ truffle test -- run the set of tests provided in the test folder of repo
Copied!
