Forest is an implementation of Filecoin written in Rust. It focuses on performance and low resource usage. It is compatible with most of the JSON-RPC API exposed by Lotus, making it easy to use with existing tools and libraries.
Forest does not support all features of the reference implementation but is a good fit for specific applications, such as:
- generating Filecoin snapshots,
- running a bootstrap node,
- running an RPC node.
Forest does not provide storage provider functionality.
