Overview

Chromatic protocol provides futures functionality within the DeFi ecosystem, enabling the creation of two-sided markets for participants to trade exposure to an underlying price feed. This comprised of many libraries, which together make the Core and Periphery.

Core contracts provide fundamental safety guarantees for all parties interacting with Chromatic. They define the logic of the market, futures trading, liquidity pools, and the interactions involving the respective assets therein.

Periphery contracts interact with one or more Core contracts but are not part of the core. They are designed to provide methods of interacting with the core that increase clarity and user safety.

External calls will primarily call the periphery interfaces except some exceptional case.
