Liquity proposes the use of lApps (local apps) as a self-sovereign, trustless frontend solution for DeFi projects. lApps offer stronger security, more control, lightning-fast loading, and zero frontend fees. Users can install local frontends with a click of a link, eliminating the need for third-party hosts. The approach allows users to run their own private frontends on their devices and rely on public infrastructure like ENS domains and IPFS gateways. Liquity calls for collaboration with other teams to make self-hosting in DeFi seamless and easy to use.
