Runtime & Dependencies

Go >= 1.21 runtime environment

Architecture

x86_64, ARM64 (Apple Silicon & Graviton)

🧠 How It Works

fabric coordinates its core functionality through a modular Go pipeline. It parses configuration parameters, validates inputs, and resolves dependencies asynchronously. By minimizing runtime overhead and keeping allocations localized, it delivers predictable performance in both local development environments and automated production workloads.

🎯 Production Use Cases

Autonomous AI Agents

Orchestrate intelligent workflows and tool-calling routines with fabric.

Model Inference & Prompting

Integrate fast, local or cloud-hosted generative AI models directly into production code.

Context Memory & RAG

Augment language models with dynamic vector retrieval and structured project memory.

Developer Productivity

Automate repetitive engineering tasks, code generation, and test creation using AI agents.

🚀 Getting Started

1

Install fabric using your package manager: `go install github.com/hyperledger/fabric@latest`

2

Initialize your project workspace or configuration file for fabric.

3

Import fabric into your codebase or invoke it directly from your terminal.

4

Execute your test suite or run `fabric --help` to verify successful setup.

👍 Strengths

Active community backing with 16,730 GitHub stars and verified adoption.
Permissive open-source distribution under the Apache-2.0 license.
Built in Go for high execution speed and developer familiarity.
Cross-platform compatibility across modern Linux, macOS, and Windows environments.
