- _Client_ could be a web browser, or a command-line client like [psf-bch-wallet](https://github.com/Permissionless-Software-Foundation/psf-bch-wallet) or [psf-avax-wallet](https://github.com/Permissionless-Software-Foundation/psf-avax-wallet).
- _Client_ could be a web browser like [wallet.fullstack.cash](https://bchn-wallet.fullstack.cash), or a command-line client like [psf-bch-wallet](https://github.com/Permissionless-Software-Foundation/psf-bch-wallet) or [psf-avax-wallet](https://github.com/Permissionless-Software-Foundation/psf-avax-wallet).
- [bch-dex](https://github.com/Permissionless-Software-Foundation/bch-dex) is the back end REST API that maintains a local database of information that the client reads from.
- [P2WDB](https://github.com/Permissionless-Software-Foundation/ipfs-p2wdb-service) is the pay-to-write global database with a REST API for interfacing with the other two pieces of software.
The arrows in the image represent the information flow between the three pieces of software:
- The _Client_ is essentially a 'dummy terminal' with a bidirectional interface to bch-dex. bch-dex does the heavy lifting, and the _Client_ is a 'thin' UI wrapper.
- `bch-dex` imports data from the global P2WDB database into its local database, using a [webhook](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webhook) (dashed line). It can also custody funds, pay transaction fees, and create an _Offer_ by submitting the data to the P2WDB to generate an _Order_ (solid line).

This architecture keeps the global database highly censorship resistant, while allowing local installations to maintain tight control over the user experience. The goal is to have many redundant copies of `bch-dex` on the network, and to empower individual traders to run their own, private copy.
