Core Concepts
Foundational ideas behind Radix β assets as primitives, atomic composability, finality, sharding, and DeFi-native design.
Access Controller
An Access Controller is a native blueprint that holds a smart account 's owner badge in a vault and hands out proofs of it under rules the ledger enfoβ¦
Access Rules & Auth Zones
Access Rules are Radix's system-level authorization mechanism. Unlike EVM where access control is enforced by smart contract code (vulnerable to bugs)β¦
Asset-Oriented Programming
Asset-oriented programming is Radix's foundational design principle where digital assets (tokens, NFTs , badges ) are native primitives managed by theβ¦

Atomic Composability
Atomic composability means that complex multi-step operations either execute completely or not at all. On Radix, a single transaction manifest can chaβ¦
