ev-node Architecture Explainer

ev-node is a sovereign rollup framework that allows building rollups on any Data Availability (DA) layer. It follows a modular architecture where components can be swapped.

• da-sequencing.md - DA and sequencing deep dive

Core Principles

1. Zero-dependency core - core/ contains only interfaces, no external deps
2. Modular components - Executor, Sequencer, DA are pluggable
3. Two operating modes - Aggregator (produces blocks) and Sync-only (follows chain)
4. Separation of concerns - Block production, syncing, and DA submission are independent
