Learn about Sui

Sui (swē) is the water element in Japanese philosophy. The power of the sui element lies in its fluidity—its ability to easily adapt to and transform any environment. Similarly, the Sui platform seeks to provide a flexible network that you can leverage to shape the web3 landscape.

The Sui platform is built on Sui Move, which is derived from the core Move programming language. This documentation assumes that you have a basic working knowledge of Move. To learn more about the differences between core Move and Sui Move, see How Sui Move differs from core Move.

For a deep dive into Sui technology, see the Sui Smart Contracts Platform white paper.
