ArcBlock’s new website is live. ARC takes the stage.
ArcBlock’s new website is live. If you are reading this at www.arcblock.io, you are already here.
The address is familiar. The pages have a different rhythm: moving images, room to explore, and new ways into the products and ideas we are building. Beneath that experience is the milestone we want to share. Our website now runs entirely on ARC.
The new ArcBlock website, English edition.
From Blocklet Server to ARC
For years, our website ran as a Blocklet on Blocklet Server. A Blocklet is an application unit in the ArcBlock ecosystem; our own site was one of the things that system hosted every day.
That history matters to us. We build the software, and we live with what it makes possible.
The previous ArcBlock website, English edition.
With this launch, the website moves onto ARC (Agentic Realm Computer), the runtime that brings an application together with the resources it needs and makes it accessible to people and AI agents. The site itself gives visitors a place to experience ARC at work, before they read about how it works.
A different way to build
There is another change behind the pages: how their code came into being.
The previous website combined Blocklets including Pages Kit and Discuss Kit, with implementation code handcrafted by our engineers. For this new website, AI coding agents wrote all of the implementation code. Humans wrote none of it. That claim concerns this website’s implementation, not the underlying ARC runtime or its dependencies.
People remain central to the work. We set the direction, judge the design, request revisions and review the result. Agents turn those intentions into working pages and interactions. For us, this is a fundamental leap in how software gets made.
ARC is built for both humans and agents. Our goal is for anyone, without a programming background, to use AI agents to build, deploy and operate a website as rich as this one. Building our new site this way is a step toward that goal.
The technology becomes the experience
The animated galleries and the different ways articles, products and events appear are built with ARC’s web capabilities. What readers see on the page draws on a foundation that also gives the content its structure.
AFS (Agentic File System) organizes files and connected resources through a common, addressable resource model. For this website, it provides the foundation for organizing content and making it available to the application.
AFS-UI is the interface subsystem. AUP (Agentic UI Protocol) describes what an application presents and which actions it offers. ARC’s Web Device uses these declarations, together with web components, to turn the site’s content into the pages visitors can browse and interact with.
These names explain the machinery. The website is where we give that machinery a visual voice: a product can have its own presence, a glossary entry can feel like a card worth keeping, and a story can have space to breathe.
A new home, still taking shape
Some details of the new site are still being completed. We will keep refining the pages and adding to the content as the site develops.
For anyone who needs to revisit the previous website, it remains available at legacy.arcblock.io for a transition period of about 30 days after the new site launches.
This website launch is also the beginning of a new publishing chapter. Announcements for ARC and other key components will follow here as their release details are ready. Today’s announcement is the website itself; individual product releases will have their own announcements.
Welcome to the new ArcBlock website. Take a look around.
