Instead, `go-ibft` is designed from the ground up to respect and adhere to the `IBFT 2.0` specification document.
Inside this package, you’ll find that it solves the underlying liveness and persistence issues of the original IBFT specification, as well as that it contains a plethora of optimizations that make it faster and more lightweight. For a complete specification overview on the package, you can check out the official documentation.
As mentioned before, `go-ibft` implements basic IBFT 2.0 state machine logic, meaning it doesn’t have any kind of transaction execution or block building mechanics. That responsibility is left to the `Backend` implementation.
