> Ledger Live Desktop is a new generation Ledger Wallet application build with React, Redux and Electron to run natively on the web. The main goal of the app is to provide our users with a single wallet for all crypto currencies supported by our devices. To learn more check out [Ledger](https://www.ledgerwallet.com/?utm_source=redirection&utm_medium=variable)
<!-- screenshot of the app here -->
## Architecture
From one side Ledger Desktop app connected to the Blockchain via the in-house written C++ library - LibCore and from the other it communicates to the Ledger Hardware Device to securely sign all transactions.
Ledger Live uses [ledger-core](https://github.com/LedgerHQ/lib-ledger-core) C++ library to deal with blockchains (sync, broadcast,..) via [ledger-core-node-bindings](https://github.com/LedgerHQ/lib-ledger-core-node-bindings). It communicates to Ledger hardware wallet devices (Nano S / Blue) to verify address and sign transactions with [ledgerjs](https://github.com/LedgerHQ/ledgerjs). Some logic is shared with [live-common](https://github.com/LedgerHQ/ledger-live-common).
