🏗️ Balancer V3 Simplifies Custom AMM Development from Months to Days
**Balancer V3 has dramatically simplified custom AMM development** by moving all complexity from individual pools to the vault architecture. **Pools now only need three functions:** - `onSwap` - calculation logic - `computeInvariant` - pool invariant - `computeBalance` - operation balances **The impact:** Custom AMM strategies that previously took months of wrestling with base contracts now take just days to implement core math. This represents a fundamental shift from V2's approach, which assumed developers could make slight math adjustments while base contracts handled complexity—a model that didn't work in practice.
