Why Build on Reactive?
Reactive is built for developers with unique features that enable Interoperability and automation:
- With Reactive Smart Contracts, you can enable if-this-then-that functionality directly within traditional Solidity-based smart contracts. No need to learn new languages—easily create contracts that observe, process, and react to events autonomously.
- Reactive Network introduces fully on-chain automation, eliminating the need for off-chain intervention and enabling dApps to react automatically to real-time events.
- Seamlessly build dApps that interact across multiple blockchains, creating multi-chain workflows that were previously not possible.
- Access comprehensive documentation, GitHub resources, and technical blogs.
- Collaborate with other developers in the Telegram Dev Group and attend hands-on workshops on YouTube.

About Reactive Network
The Reactive Network, pioneered by PARSIQ, ushers in a new wave of blockchain innovation through its Reactive Smart Contracts (RSCs). These advanced contracts can autonomously execute based on specific on-chain events, eliminating the need for off-chain computation and heralding a seamless cross-chain ecosystem vital for Web3’s growth.
Central to this breakthrough is the Inversion of Control (IoC) framework, which redefines smart contracts and decentralized applications (DApps) by imbuing them with unparalleled autonomy, efficiency, and interactivity. By marrying RSCs with IoC, Reactive Network is setting the stage for a transformative blockchain era, characterized by enhanced interoperability and the robust, user-friendly foundation Web3 demands.
