The Dolomite Margin protocol (A.K.A. `Dolomite Margin`) consists of smart contracts that run on various networks. These contracts support margin trading, borrowing, and lending.

Dolomite Margin is used by [app.dolomite.io](https://app.dolomite.io/) and [markets.worldlibertyfinancial.com](https://markets.worldlibertyfinancial.com/).

Dolomite was built to be as modular as possible while preserving the ethos of DeFi with immutable smart contracts. This is well exemplified below with Dolomite's architecture diagram:

A more in-depth explanation of the above diagram can be seen on the home page of the docs [here](/dolomite.md).
