### System Design

OpenSource uses modular architecture where each component has specific responsibilities. This separation enables independent scaling and upgrading without system-wide impacts.

**Architecture Principles:**

* Modular components with clean interfaces
* No single points of failure
* Progressive decentralization
* User sovereignty over assets
* Transparent operations

### Technology Stack

The platform combines Web3 technologies with proven tools. This hybrid approach provides blockchain benefits while maintaining familiar user experiences.

**Tech Stack Components:**

* **Smart Contracts**: Solidity, OpenZeppelin
* **Storage**: Arweave
* **AI/ML**: TensorFlow, Python services
* **Infrastructure**: Kubernetes, Docker

### Data Flow

Understanding data flow reveals how blockchain and traditional systems work together. Each layer handles specific responsibilities while maintaining overall system coherence.

**Flow Process:**

1. User pushes code&#x20;
2. Server validates permissions
3. Code uploads to Arweave
4. Smart contract records ownership
5. AI analyzes contribution
6. Rewards distribute automatically
7. Events update databases
