- [`beacon_node/`](beacon_node/): the "Beacon Node" binary and crates exclusively
associated with it.
- [`docs/`](docs/): documentation related to the repository. This includes contributor
guides, etc. (It does not include code documentation, which can be produced with `cargo doc`).
- [`eth2/`](eth2/): Crates containing common logic across the Lighthouse project. For
example: Ethereum 2.0 types ([`BeaconBlock`](eth2/types/src/beacon_block.rs), [`BeaconState`](eth2/types/src/beacon_state.rs), etc) and
SimpleSerialize (SSZ).
- [`protos/`](protos/): protobuf/gRPC definitions that are common across the Lighthouse project.

### Directory Structure
Here we provide an overview of the directory structure:
- `beacon_chain/`: contains logic derived directly from the specification.
E.g., shuffling algorithms, state transition logic and structs, block
validation, BLS crypto, etc.
- `lighthouse/`: contains logic specific to this client implementation. E.g.,
CLI parsing, RPC end-points, databases, etc.
### Running

# Ethereum 2.0 Common Crates
Rust crates containing logic common across the Lighthouse project.
## Per-Crate Summary
- [`attester/`](attester/): Core logic for attesting to beacon and shard blocks.
- [`block_proposer/`](block_proposer/): Core logic for proposing beacon blocks.
- [`fork_choice/`](fork_choice/): A collection of fork-choice algorithms for
the Beacon Chain.
- [`state_processing/`](state_processing/): Provides per-slot, per-block, and
per-epoch state processing.
- [`types/`](types/): Defines base Ethereum 2.0 types (e.g., `BeaconBlock`,
`BeaconState`, etc).
- [`utils/`](utils/):
- [`bls`](utils/bls/): A wrapper for an external BLS encryption library.
- [`boolean-bitfield`](utils/boolean-bitfield/): Provides an expandable vector
of bools, specifically for use in Eth2.
- [`fisher-yates-shuffle`](utils/fisher-yates-shuffle/): shuffles a list
pseudo-randomly.
- [`hashing`](utils/hashing/): A wrapper for external hashing libraries.
- [`honey-badger-split`](utils/honey-badger-split/): Splits a list in `n`
parts without giving AF about the length of the list, `n`, or anything
else.
- [`int-to-bytes`](utils/int-to-bytes/): Simple library which converts ints
into byte-strings of various lengths.
- [`slot_clock`](utils/slot_clock/): translates the system time into Beacon
Chain "slots". (Also provides another slot clock that's useful during
testing.)
- [`ssz`](utils/ssz/): an implementation of the SimpleSerialize
serialization/deserialization protocol used by Eth 2.0.
- [`ssz_derive`](utils/ssz_derive/): provides procedural macros for
deriving SSZ `Encodable`, `Decodable`, and `TreeHash` methods.
- [`swap_or_not_shuffle`](utils/swap_or_not_shuffle/): a list-shuffling
method which is slow, but allows for a subset of indices to be shuffled.
- [`test_random_derive`](utils/test_random_derive/): provides procedural
macros for deriving the `TestRandom` trait defined in `types`.
